Princess Haley: Cultivating Change Through Food and Community

So that's what I would hope people could take away from this: one meal at a time, one tomato at a time, one seed at a time, one courageous conversation with a question at a time that you are open to somebody else's answer as a truth to the same situation that you may hold a different truth to.
How can food be a catalyst for healing and social change? Princess Haley, co-founder of Appetite for Change, has dedicated her life to answering this question. In this compelling episode of Unwasted, hosted by Imperfect Foods, Princess shares her journey of using food to foster health, wealth, and social justice in North Minneapolis. She delves into the intersection of food and racial justice, recounting how her organization responded to the tragic murders of Jamar Clark and George Floyd.
Princess also opens up about the profound impact of losing her son to gun violence and how it shaped her vision for breaking cycles of trauma and violence. Her insights are both timely and timeless, offering wisdom that can be applied to any year or community. Despite some audio hiccups due to technical issues, Princess's message shines through: change starts with small, courageous steps—one meal, one tomato, one seed at a time.
Tune in to hear how food can be a powerful tool for building connections and fostering resilience in communities.
