I write NeighborFood because I believe my flourishing depends on the flourishing of my neighbors, the ones right next door and the ones across the world. I believe our hearts are made for community and for mutual care that isn’t dependent on wealth or status or physical abilities. NeighborFood is about food, yes, but only in so much as food connects us, binds us, nourishes us, sustains us. It is about the ways food reminds us of our common humanity, levels the playing field, and opens the tiniest pathways for connection across our differences.
