CounterPULSE: Underground Food Politics | SoMa

Submitted by the Event Organizer

With urban homesteading all the rage and backyard and vacant lot food production on the rise it appears we’re taking big steps toward encouraging self-sufficiency in the Bay Area. For sure people’s requirements for connection to their food has changed.

But how much do the popular local underground food movements fit within a concept of food security, within a drive to control one’s own food sources as in food sovereignity? How much are they used as a stepping stone into the market for boutique products and small-business creation?

Featuring:

• Iso Rabins of ForageSF and the Underground Market
• Antonio Roman-Alcalá of the SF Urban Agriculture Alliance and the SF Permaculture Guild
• Leif Hedendal, underground chef extraordinaire.

Another extraordinarily relevant talk brought to you by CounterPULSE.
