For one year Robin Greenfield foraged every bite of his food and medicine. A year without grocery stores, restaurants, pharmacies or even a garden with “Nature” as his garden!
Is it possible to eat in harmony with Earth and live in reciprocity? Robin wholeheartedly believes so and is putting this love and devotion for Earth into bold action as he harvests the food and medicine that is growing freely and abundantly all around us.
He is traveling to our community to share his foraging journey and celebrate the individuals and organizations in our community working for a more resilient, local food system. He will also share about the 1 Million Community Fruit Trees Initiative and invite us to get involved in this grassroots collaborative effort in food sovereignty.
Join us for an eye opening exploration of food sovereignty through the food and medicine that is growing abundantly all around us. Come out to build your knowledge, your skills and your community!

What is Robin eating now that the year of foraging is over? He's staying strongly committed to eating foraged and homegrown foods, not a morsel from the global, industrial food system. Power to the people, not the corporations! Want to share food that you've foraged, grown or locally sourced with Robin to support him in this endeavor? Learn more here.
