Food access and how nature inspires cooking / 2019 Hipcamp Leave It Better Event / New York City, NY

This fall, Hipcamp (https://hipcamp.com) joined forces with Huckberry and the Billion Oyster Project and kicked off its first “Leave It Better” event in NYC. The theme leans on the idea that while we experience and spend time in nature, we have a simple choice to make: what footprints will we leave behind, and what will our impact be? With this in mind, we invited ecologist Charles Post to interview a diverse group of inspiring leaders all with unique ties to nature in and around New York City, to talk about their work and how they’ve chosen to #LeaveItBetter in their own way.

In this video, Sophia Roe, chef and food access advocate, discusses connecting urban youth with the natural world through farming and food. She reminds us that food is our universal bond to nature, one that we all share. Much of Sophia’s work aims to bridge this gap and revitalize the connection between city and soil.
