Ana Joanes: When confronted with such large and complex problems, it's hard to see the meaning of small, individual actions. I embarked on the making of Fresh to recapture a sense of agency.
FRESH, which premieres this week in New York, Boston and DC, "celebrates the farmers, thinkers and business people across America who are re-inventing our food system."
It is not only the pig whose pig-ness we need to respect, but the Ana-ness of Ana. By learning to respect and embrace the truth of who I am, I too can find my place and role in this world.
As an eco-raw food chef and author, folks often ask me what I eat. I'll show you here what I ate yesterday, and you'll see it's hardly carrot sticks and celery.
