Lawrence Hall room 115 with reception to follow in Hayden Gallery. Feral Farms: Midwestern Recipes for Land Justice
In the face of biodiversity collapse and climate change, the American Midwest's agricultural landscapes—marked by monocropping, concentrated animal feeding operations, and ecological degradation—hold untapped potential for transformation. This project explores the intersection of dietary change, ecological rewilding and land justice as mechanisms for reimagining the region’s agricultural and ecological futures.
“Feral Farms” charts this pathway through a cartographic cookbook that reimagines the act of eating as a cultural, ecological, and political intervention. Drawing from the stories and practices of Indigenous farmers, foragers, and hunters, the project weaves together case studies that demonstrate how rewilding agriculture is already happening. These stories are coupled with actionable recipes that empower individuals to embrace dietary choices that foster biodiversity, sequester carbon, and support Indigenous-led stewardship of the land.
