CELEBRATING DIA DE LOS MUERTOS SUSTAINABLY: ALIGNING TRADITION WITH KITCHEN ACTIVISM

As I woke this morning, the aroma of my grandmother's signature lentil stew filled the air, at least in my memory. It is Dia de los Muertos—the day we honor our deceased loved ones by preparing their favorite meals. It got me thinking about the power of food, not only as a means of remembrance but also as a tool to impact our planet positively. I invite you to join me as we journey into the world of Kitchen Activism, where our meals become intentional acts of respect for our ancestors, our environment, and ourselves.

Beneath the surface of every bite are stories of how our food choices impact the world. As I reminisced about my grandmothers, I realized the best way to honor them is through food, but not at the expense of the environment. How can we align our culinary traditions with our values of protecting Mother Earth? The answer lies in cooking with purpose, shopping with intention, and supporting sustainable farming practices. Together, we can transform our kitchens into powerful platforms for environmental change while carrying forward the legacy of our loved ones. So here's to a feast of activism, purpose, and memory, one meal at a time!
