Have you ever heard of Taro or Yacon? I had the immense pleasure of illustrating these educational postcards for @utopianseedproject, (founded by @blueandyellowmakes). @utopianseedproject “explores a different model for our food system [much needed!] but is grounded in real hands-in-the earth research to support that vision.” They trial crops and varieties here in the Southeast to support diversity in food and farming. Its truly an incredible organization. @blueandyellowmakes wrote a book, The Whole Okra, and it rocked my world!! It’s now up for a James Beard Award Nomination!! Stop reading this now and go check both @utopianseedproject and @blueandyellowmakes out right now!! - - - #illustration #food #changeourfoodsystem #taro #yacon #digitalillustration #drawing #ashevillenc #828isgreat #southeastcropvarieties #cropdiversity #farming #gardening #homestead #food #okra #thewholeokra #indefenseofokra #utopianseedproject #seedsarefood #sowtrueseed https://www.instagram.com/p/CAbebANhgMB/?igshid=nkmfzd15ln9f
