The Soul of Food: A Juneteenth Jubilee

This event is hosted in partnership with Deep Routes and Bissel Gardens. 

Come cook with us in the garden in honor of Juneteenth! During this workshop we’ll get into the legacy of Juneteenth as well as self liberation efforts throughout the African diaspora, and learn about crops (e.g. hibiscus, field peas, and more) that have sustained Black peoples throughout the Southern U.S. and Caribbean. 

As we prepare and share a meal together we’ll reflect on the legacies and continued strides Black folks have made through self-determination and preservation of foodways. This session is a continuation of The Soul of Food, a hands-on Deep Routes workshop series honoring the foodways that connect plants, peoples, and lands across Afro-Indigenous diasporas.
