SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:From Seed to Sovereignty: Incubator Workshop for Student-Led Food & Social Change Projects
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever imagined a community pizza oven behind your residence hall? Or wanted to start your own line of tomato sauce with your grandma's recipe? The UM Sustainable Food Program (UMSFP) wants to help bring your idea to campus!\n\nWe are excited to be hosting a two-part incubator workshop series aimed at helping students create projects that further food sovereignty movements on campus! \n\nUMSFP nourishes a community of students working for a food sovereign campus. One way UMSFP does this is through the Student Food Empowerment Fund\, a grant for student organizations to purchase meaningful materials for events and develop long-term projects that support food sovereignty at U-M. \n\nStudent food sovereignty is the right of students to eat\, grow\, build community\, and experience joy with culturally relevant and sustainably and equitably produced food. UMSFP seeks to empower students to challenge and reshape campus food systems\, shaped by systems of oppression\, with its grants. UMSFP’s approach to food student food sovereignty emphasizes supporting student agency within the unique dynamics of a college environment\, drawing inspiration from grassroots movements for food justice while seeking to build an alternative food system led by and for students. \n\nJoin us to brainstorm some cool student-led projects (like the farm stand!)\, while enjoying time with other like-minded students and\, of course\, food!
