Description

Today we welcome Elspeth Hay onto the R2Kast! πŸŽ™οΈ


From Maine to Cape Cod, Elspeth’s journey took a nutty turn when she discovered you can eat acorns… and never looked back! Originally a food and environment journalist, Elspeth now champions the cultural and nutritional value of tree nuts, especially acorns. Her fascination led to a new book and a whole radio show dedicated to local food stories on the Cape. πŸ§ πŸŽ™οΈ


We talk ancient human-forest relationships, the joy of hyperlocal food, and how falling down an oak-scented rabbit hole can reshape your entire career. Her passion is infectious and her curiosity inspiring. πŸŒ³πŸ”


A beautiful reminder that food stories are everywhere β€” even in the forest floor.


Enjoy! 😊
