Jackie is the founder and manager of Urban Exposure Initiative. She is a micro-urban farmer who participates in community garden design and consultation. She is a former community outreach specialist and state family support partner. Today, Jackie focuses on the reconnection to peace with Earth and all its healing properties, as well as the gift of life amongst all the noise of the world. Why Do We Garden? is a purpose-driven approach to serving your family, your community and yourself. It is an interactive workshop and a call to action to find your “why.”This event is part of the Honorable Harvest lecture series, organized in alignment with the Kalamazoo Foodways Symposium, and inspired by the beloved Robin Wall Kimmerer, author of Braiding Sweetgrass. Kimmerer describes the Indigenous principles and practices of the Honorable Harvest, asking us to give back in reciprocity for what we have been given. Join us in this lecture series to explore ways in which we can come together to nurture and restore the Honorable Harvest in our communities and in our every day lives.
Arrive as early as 5 p.m. to enjoy Taps on Tuesday, a happy hour-style event hosted by Kalamazoo Valley’s culinary and brewing students.
