Changing Generations through Scratch Cooking for Public Schools, Rebuilding Local Food Systems & Reconnecting with Mother Earth w/ Greg Christian of Sustainable Food Institute of America

Greg Christian, founder of Sustainable Food Institute of America and Beyond Green Partners, focuses on going into school kitchens and teaching them how to cook and buy local food AND stay cost neutral. The work centers around two important goals: 1. When kids leave school, they crave nutrient dense food and 2. Rebuild local food systems through schools, kitchens, and other large commercial kitchens, like hospitals and jails. In this episode, Greg and I chat all about the quality of the foods we eat, scratch cooking for public schools, reconnecting with Mother Earth and so much more!
