Everyone deserves access to healthy, delicious food. To many, this statement is a truism, so why does it still feel so radical to say out loud?
Gather Together is an audio documentary exploring the topic of food security in Lekwungen Territory (Victoria, BC). Join host Rowan as he attends community meals, interviews food justice advocates, and confronts some of the misconceptions around found insecurity locally.
