Satiated Episode 167: Discovering Food Freedom and Body Connection Through Getting To Know Your Local Farmers, Farmers Markets, and the Roots of Your Food

Happy Satiated Saturday! 

I have a very special guest with me today on the podcast. 

A little backstory first, I was chatting with a previous guest on the podcast a few months ago about my brother in law, who is a farmer and consultant to companies with natural climate solutions. He is passionate about teaching others on soil, food and the health of our environment. 

After mentioning what he does, this guest said, "Wow, I'd love to hear more from him." So I reached out to Jacob and was like, you've got to come on my podcast. 

I know I talk a lot here about the emotional aspects of our relationship with food and why we may eat to self soothe. And a part of healing your relationship with food can also be falling back in love with the nourishing qualities of food and feeling empowered, that you get to choose what food you satiate your body with.

In this week’s episode, I chat with Jacob Fox, farmer and consultant to companies with natural climate solutions, about healing your relationship with food through connecting with your local farmers and farmers markets, why choosing local food makes a difference, and questions to ask your local farmers.
