TED: 'Pam Warhurst: How We Can Eat Our Landscapes' (and meet all our food needs locally)

TED: 'Pam Warhurst: How We Can Eat Our Landscapes'

This goes well beyond growing edible landscapes to how developing and using local food resources
can unite and empower people around the shared need for food. My thought is that if we can meet all
our food needs locally and through our own efforts, why not all our needs?

What should a community do with its unused land? Plant food, of course. With energy and humor,
Pam Warhurst tells at the TEDSalon the story of how she and a growing team of volunteers came
together to turn plots of unused land into communal vegetable gardens, and to change the narrative
of food in their community.

Pam Warhurst cofounded Incredible Edible, an initiative in Todmorden, England dedicated to growing
food locally by planting on unused land throughout the community.
