Description

Our food system is sick, and so are we. From pesticides and monocrops to fragile global supply chains, convenience has cost us our health, our animals, and our soil. 

In this timely, uplifting episode, Catherine sits down with Vikki Ede (nutritional therapist, co-lead at the People’s Food & Farming Alliance and community coordinator at My Little Farm) to unpack how food sovereignty restores health, resilience, and freedom. 

Vicki shares her own beginner-to-grower journey, why even a windowsill sprout can be a radical act, and exactly how communities are rebuilding local, regenerative food networks that nourish people and the planet.
