Part II: Building Decentralized Community Power through Urban Ag with Kieran Morris, Urban Farmer!

November 5 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm CST

Join East Phillips Neighborhood Institute Urban Farmer, Kieran Morris, and the Sabo Center’s Community Changemakers to learn about how growing food in our cities builds health, power, and agency in our neighborhoods. This will be the first of two talks by Kieran, and a series of talks and workshops from EPNI staff over the remainder of the semester.
Kieran is a community organizer, farmer and canoe guide, specializing in Green and Blue work, bringing practical skills alongside traditional knowledge and grassroots mentality to connect people with the land and water.At EPNI, Kieran coordinates the Outdoor Farm project, which grows produce and medicine at sites across East Phillips, and hosts free educational workshops. In his spare time, he writes fiction and poetry, hunts and fishes, wanders with his partner, draws landscapes, practices and teaches a couple of martial arts and struggles to learn blues guitar.
