Fair to say my blogging became severely neglected since 2014 when I began graduate school. Working full-time, putting in 20+ hrs a week for course work, and running an animal rescue left me rather spent, y'all. That said, I would like to get back into the swing of writing again. In case you didn't know, I finished my graduate degree in Sustainable Food Systems from Green Mountain College this past February. My Capstone project was titled, "Digging in the Dirt: A Pilot Study Addressing Sweat Equity and Its Influence on Registered Dietitians' Views About the Local Sustainable Food System." Basically, I took a group of RDs to a local urban farm operated by The Refugee Response and taught them about sustainable food systems (SFS) concepts and we all participated in a farm chore. It was an amazing experience, and I hope to submit my manuscript for journal publication soon.
Given my recent degree, I plan on blogging about SFS issues, along with veganism and everything in between. Addressing intersectionality is incredibly important for anyone who identifies as an activist. So, here's to some snarky, informative blogging in the coming days...
