One Mile Meal

with Ally Reeves
ongoing

One Mile Meal is a research and performance expedition touring US cities during the growing/harvesting seasons, in 2007 and 2008. Ally Reeves and I spend an eight-hour day biking within a one-mile radius of our host venue. The goal is to find food growing (either wild or cultivated) within the city. In the evening we return to the host space to share scavenged food, stories and conversation with our audience. This mission creates an opportunity to talk with a lot of different people about their cities and local food initiatives, share the challenges of creating a sustainable lifestyle and learn from the efforts of others.

So far we've presented One Mile Meal in:
Washington, DC
Chicago, IL
Pittsburgh, PA
