Come cook with us in the garden in honor of Juneteenth! During this workshop we’ll get into the legacy of Juneteenth as well as self-liberation efforts throughout the African diaspora and learn about crops that have sustained Black peoples throughout the Southern U.S. and Caribbean. As we prepare and share a meal together, we’ll reflect on the legacies and continued strides Black folks have made through self–determination and preservation of foodways.

This session is a continuation of The Soul of Food, a Deep Routes workshop series honoring the foodways that connect plants, peoples, and lands across Afro–Indigenous diasporas.
