Out Sick This Week

I’m sorry readers- no new blog post this week.

I’ve tested positive for Covid, and it takes all I’ve got just to sit upright on the couch long enough to finish a warm beverage (I lost my sense of taste today so I can’t tell if it’s tea or coffee.) My fiancé has been working hard to prepare tasty meals to keep me nourished, which has me reflecting on the unique requirements our bodies have to stay healthy. Respecting everyone’s individual needs inform much of my practices at the food pantry, so today I’m revisiting this post about how my personal challenges with food inform my own effort to fight hunger.

Check in next week for a new post!

My background as a food pantry manager, school garden educator and degree in public policy specializing in food access informs my current work as a food banker, and provides me with an alternative perspective to American traditions for fighting hunger. I intend for this blog to provide me with a space to examine the challenges regarding food banking in a way that I believe they are not currently being analyzed.
