Becoming ourselves: how to grow community | Hanna Flanders | TEDxConcord

NOTE FROM TED: TEDx events are independently organized by volunteers. The guidelines we give TEDx organizers are described in more detail here: http://storage.ted.com/tedx/manuals/t... High school friends return home to bring a food hub to life in rural New Hampshire. What starts as a way to bring safe, sustainable agricultural practices to the farm then grows to include a market, a café, and educational outreach. The "special sauce?" Mindful organizing, systems thinking, and embracing our humanity. Hanna is a wife, mother, and co-founder of the Kearsarge Food Hub, a young nonprofit working to rebuild community around a restorative local food system. She graduated from Smith College with a degree in Philosophy and Environmental Science and Policy, and set off on a path to help recast our relationships with nature and each other through food, and in so doing create solutions to the most pressing issues of our time, including public health, climate change, poverty and hunger, and social equity. Hanna calls upon a variety of mediums to tell the story of the Kearsarge Food Hub and it’s many facets, including social media, writing, video production, talks, presentations, and events, while engaging and inviting the community to join in the organization’s growth and development. Hanna is driven by the human story behind the local food and community systems within which she is working, and by the urgent need to create a safe and prosperous future for her two young children. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
