The Diné Nation addresses food insecurity, access

The Diné Nation addresses food insecurity, access to healthy food and clean drinking water, and the need to reclaim the ancestral practices of food traditionalism in the Navajo Nation. This grassroots effort will help promote Diné food heritage, support the growing of their own food, and raise awareness of unhealthy food and healthy eating. Their grant will also address the needs of Diné tribal citizens in supporting First Responders and their families in the Four Corners area and continuing the community-led public health interventions of reducing and eliminating the risks and spread of COVID-19 in the Navajo Nation. @dineadvocacy⁠

Consider the African supergrain fonio for your nex

Consider the African supergrain fonio for your next @meatlessmonday. This grain has been kept alive by West African farmers and tradition, and is now slowly making its way to the global stage. [Don't have any fonio at home? Look no further than @yolelefoods!] Try the recipe at the link in bio for these Fonio Stuffed Peppers from West Africa using white fonio, an Ark of Taste product, and slow down for Meatless Monday!⁠

Taking meat off the menu at least one day a week is a great way to move toward consuming a little less meat in general. Slow Food advocates for better meat, less meat. If we resolve to eating “better meat, less,” we can begin to shift the power away from large, harmful corporations and empower producers who raise their animals according to the highest treatment and quality standards. By eating consciously and locally, you are choosing to support ethical and sustainable practices while reducing your environmental impact. Learn more at slowfoodusa.org/slow-meat/

In response to seeing farmers, and in particular f

In response to seeing farmers, and in particular farmers of color, lose sales after shelter in place orders, @slowfoodeastbay worked with regional partners to launch the Sister Farms Project. The Sister Farms Project finds urban CSAs and food distribution programs to purchase produce and creates new rural-urban networks and sales opportunities that specifically uplift disadvantaged farmers. ⁠⠀
