Do you know WHY it’s important to eat seasonally?

Are you interested in learning more about food security?

Do you want to contribute to your community more?

Do you love the idea of healthy local food being accessible to everyone?

In today’s episode on Root Awakening: A Health Podcast we are talking with Alita Kelly. Alita is the founder of the South East Market in Grand Rapids, MI, Chair of the Boston Square Business Association, and the Vice Chair of the city of Grand Rapids Urban Agriculture Committee. The South East Market’s mission is to increase access to healthy, affordable, and culturally-accepted food for their community through a sustainable and equitable lens. The South East Market sources food first from black, brown, indigenous, local, or womxn-led farms and businesses, and Alita ensures that the market supports sustainable businesses whenever possible. In this episode, Alita tells us about what an equitable and sustainable food system looks like, why healthy food is still not accessible to many communities, why farm to table often misses people of color, why food justice is so important and how contributing to food justice feeds our souls and helps us all to thrive, why land is a pressing issue for the farming community, what radical sharing and intentional community is, and what sustainable business actually looks like. Find out how Alita is creating food accessibility, radical sharing, connective community building and environmental awareness through the South East Market!

Work with Emily by booking an intuitive body reading. Intuitive body readings are 1:1, 60-minute sessions with Emily that are designed for you to hear what the universe wants to tell you about how to heal. Emily will use her third eye to read your body, and will listen to what the universe (source/god/spirit) wants her to communicate about what you need to know in order to heal.This reading is 100% channeled and 100% spirit. Emily will communicate to you any combination of the following: where/how healing needs to happen, where blockages are in the body, and how to start addressing traumas and physical pain.
