Join Seeds of Middle Eastern Culture

This community is part of Seeds of Middle Eastern Cultures Food Sovereignty Project. The purpose is to spark interest in local food systems and plants that are culturally meaningful in the Middle East and to its diaspora communities in Columbus, Ohio. Our goal is to provide a transformative learning experience that builds a community of food systems builders. The learning experience we create will hold to the values of: - Stewardship of the Earth - Mentorship and sharing knowledge - Mental health and whole person development - Education through demonstrating the value of soil and nature - Prosperity creation through good works that benefit people and planet Learning doesn’t need to take place in a formal setting. We encourage hands-on learning. The educational materials here can be incorporated into gardening activities, projects, and other experiential learning opportunities. Activities might be part of after-school programs, internships, etc. but the materials here can also serve as stand-alone resources. We will reward individuals who are active contributors with additional feedback, opportunities to connect, and special bonuses. Check https://go.osu.edu/mideast-food for further information.
