SUMMARY:Feed Us with Trees: Humans as a Keystone Species
DESCRIPTION:As a girl\, Elspeth Hay learned that we humans are a blight on the natural world. Her lived experience confirmed this story time and again—until the day she learned that we humans can eat acorns. Suddenly\, things began to shift. In her new book\, Feed Us with Trees: Nuts and the Future of Food\, Elspeth reveals the ancient relationship between humans\, our keystone nut trees\, and fire—and the ways we can work together again to revitalize our world. \nSpeaker’s bio: Elspeth Hay is the creator and host of the Local Food Report\, a weekly feature that has aired on the Cape and Islands NPR station since 2008\, and the author of the book Feed Us with Trees: Nuts and the Future of Food. Deeply immersed in her own local-food system\, she writes and reports for print\, radio\, and online media with a focus on food\, the environment\, and the people\, places\, and ideas that feed us. You can learn more about her work at elspethhay.com. \nThis class is online only. \nRegister Here \nFee\nThis event is free\, however\, donations help us keep future programming costs low for our community. Thank you for your continued support! \n\nContact\nJonathan Bates\nAgroforestry Educator\njb2663@cornell.edu\n(607) 272-2292 ext. 171
