A big thank you to

@Mike Gagnon

for sharing this powerful and eye-opening interview with Chef Sean Sherman (Oglala Lakota) on The Daily Show.

In just 13 minutes, Chef Sherman takes us on a journey that is about so much more than food — it's about identity, cultural revival, and living in harmony with the land.

Here’s what deeply moved me:

🍃 He doesn’t just cook — he reclaims. His restaurant Owamni uses zero European colonial ingredients—no dairy, wheat, or sugar—focusing entirely on indigenous foods that honor the earth and ancestral wisdom.

🌎 He calls Indigenous knowledge the "blueprint for sustainability" — something our nature-inspired community deeply understands. This is about thousands of years of plant wisdom, not just trends.

🕊️ He reframes Thanksgiving not as a myth to celebrate, but as an invitation to learn the real history of the land we live on and support Native communities.

This conversation is a profound reminder that the most sustainable way forward is often a return to rooted wisdom.

@everyone: Let’s discuss:

What part of his philosophy resonates most with you?

How does this change the way you think about "local" and "sustainable" food?

Grateful for conversations that reconnect us with what truly matters. 🙏🌿
