This presentation explores the deep-seated connection many of us have to food, and therefore, also to Land. I highlight the historical, cultural, and political dimensions of food and the associated processes. This presentation connects the need for childhood cooking education (and all education) to be conducted outdoors, as close to the Land as possible. In this talk, decolonization is a central lens through which we explore the weaponization, as well as the liberatory potential, of food and cooking. Join me as we connect our personal lived experiences of food and Land, and relate them to the expanding fields of food anthropology, Land-based learning, and Indigenous pedagogies.
