About this Event
For one year Robin Greenfield is foraging every bite of his food and medicine. A year without grocery stores, restaurants, pharmacies or even a garden. “Nature” is his garden!
Is it possible to eat in harmony with Earth and live in reciprocity? Robin wholeheartedly believes so and is putting this love and devotion for Earth into bold action as he harvests the food and medicine that is growing freely and abundantly all around us.
He is traveling to our community to share his foraging journey and celebrate the individuals and organizations in our community working for a more resilient, local food system. He will also share about the newly launched 1 Million Community Fruit Trees Initiative and invite us to get involved in this grassroots collaborative effort in food sovereignty.
While many of us are in great despair over our current social, political and environmental crises, this is a call to bold action. Now is the time to embrace community, build local resiliency, grow our relationships and develop our skills. This is a call to healing our relationship with Earth!
Join us for an eye opening exploration of food sovereignty through the food and medicine that is growing abundantly all around us.

Robin’s public activism involves dramatic gestures designed to reach the mainstream and to provoke critical thought, self-reflection and positive change. His activism creates nuanced conversations on the critical issues of our time, with a focus on solutions for living in harmony. His work has been covered by media worldwide and he has been named “The Robin Hood of Modern Times” by France 2 TV and “The Forrest Gump of Ecology” and “A Thoreau-esque character for our digital age” by Rich Roll. What Robin is dedicated to is simple – liberation and basic rights for all – Earth, humanity and our plant and animal relatives.
He is currently immersed in a year-long activism campaign of foraging 100% of his food and medicine, traveling the country extensively sharing the message that Earth provides us with everything we need.
