If the farm-to-table movement has taught us anything, it is that knowing where your food comes from can make a difference in the local community (and comes with delicious flavor!). Your microbiome–as local a community as you can get!–would also benefit from such care and attention.How do your immune cells get their intel?
Who digests your food?
Who gave your food nutrients in the first place?
Food crops not only make their own phytochemical menu that add flavor to our lives, ward off caterpillars, etc, but plants, themselves, have their very own microbiome! From mycorrhizal connections, endophytic fungi, and nodule-forming nitrogen-fixing rhizobia, the interdependent nature of nature is an inspiration.
Come for a good “gut feeling” about your microbiome, stay to hear what soil and planetary health can offer. From microorganisms to macro-nutrients, from the garden to our guts, from the latest scientific discoveries to our beliefs, we will ask the question: what is possible by cultivating diverse communities?
