DESCRIPTION:Renewing America’s Food Traditions: Saving and Savoring the Continent’s 
 Most Endangered Foods\nAn Evening With Gary Paul Nabhan and Ashley 
 Rood\n\nGary Paul Nabhan, writer, food and farming advocate, rural lifeways 
 folklorist, and conservationist, may be best known for his pioneering 
 Southwestern locavore experiment described in Coming Home to Eat.\n\nHe 
 founded the collaborative Renewing America’s Food Traditions (RAFT) and 
 edited the book by the same name, a journey across our continent’s 13 
 distinct food nations that details endangered foods and brings them to life 
 with cultural histories, folk traditions, and recipes. Nabhan will travel 
 from Pinyon Nut Nation to speak at the Ferry Building and will be joined by 
 local Acorn Nation environmental advocate and sustainable agriculture 
 activist Ashley Rood, who contributed to this book and coauthored its 
 precursor. Together they will offer tales and photographs from the book, 
 including success stories of renewal and revitalization of traditional 
 foodways, and remind us how our food choices can support biodiversity and a 
 region’s distinct culinary identity.\n\nThe presentation will take place 
 in the Port Commission Hearing Room in the Ferry Building, and will be 
 followed by a tasting of rare and endangered foods found at the Ferry Plaza 
 Farmers Market. \n\nThe cost is $10. \n\nBuy tickets here:
