Book Discussion - Feeding Each Other: Shaping Change in Food Systems - Gilroy Library

Join local sustainable food advocate Peter Ruddock outside in the Courtyard of the Gilroy Library for a lively discussion of the book Feeding Each Other: Shaping Change in Food Systems Through Relationship by Nicole Civita and Michelle Auerbach.

Food does much more than fuel our bodies. Food helps us express care, create culture, and connect. But while food today might feed some of us, the growing, producing, packaging, and distributing is also killing us. Trying to 'feed the world' is accelerating the collapse of environmental, economic, and social structures. The current "solutions" aren't working. By blending research, insights from diverse thinkers, and lived experience, food systems educator Nicole Civita and story justice activist Michelle Auerbach make sense of sustenance. They demonstrate that our lives depend on the relationships we make with and through food, and make the case for a much-needed cultural shift in the way we approach food.
