Supporting an alternative food system with Reaping What She Sows author Nancy Matsumoto

How can we change our eating habits in ways that improve our health, the health of the planet, and promote equity in the food system?

If you’re interested in supporting a healthier food system listen to my guest this week Nancy Matsumoto, an award-winning freelance writer and editor who specializes in the areas of regenerative agriculture, food, sake, arts and culture.

 Her latest book Reaping What She Sows offers a blueprint for what eating enjoyably, regeneratively, and ethically looks like today. Essential for those who are concerned about climate change, their own health, and the lack of choice and transparency in the global food supply chain. 

Nancy introduces readers to the women changemakers who are building local and regional supply chains, from the maverick farmers, millers, and bakers bringing back local grain economies; the brewers, distillers, and winemakers who are regenerating land and ecosystems; indigenous and diasporic seed savers, and many more changemakers.

Nancy shares about these incredible women who are rebuilding our broken food system, working tirelessly to bring us an alternative to Big Agriculture, for good wholesome, sustainably produced food that’s better for us and for the planet.

She shows us how what we choose to put on our plate impacts our bodies, the land and the world around us.
