How does food bind us to the land we call home? From pecan groves in Georgia to the datil peppers of St. Augustine, in today’s episode we explore how Indigenous plants—both wild and cultivated—help us forge deeper connections to the land and the people around us. The stories shared in this episode come from the unceded, occupied lands currently known as the United States. We recognize the profound and enduring connection that Indigenous peoples have to these lands, and how their stewardship has shaped the food systems and traditions that continue to nourish and sustain us. We honor their wisdom and amplify their voices to reclaim and preserve their traditional foodways, supporting their sovereignty and resilience in the process.
