Foodways, Our ways, Always: First Nations Urban Food Growing and Food Usage
Food connects us to culture, place and each other. Strengthening our food systems can be a significant means for individual and community health and political change. In this workshop you will learn about the many traditional fruits, seeds, nuts leaves and roots that are growing at the Northey Street City Farm. You will also learn about the nutritional and health benefits of a range of different bush foods and how to prepare them in contemporary recipes. There will be opportunity to learn and discuss the ways growing cultural food systems can bring resilience, self-determination and provide the means for cultural continuum within urban communities and spaces.
This is a workshop for First Nations participants.
