“Willful Wildflowers” storybook shares journeys and dreams of FSLN members

Since the launch of the Food Systems Leadership Network in 2018, the backbone team has had the honor of connecting with and interviewing several of the many changemakers in this work. In Willful Wildflowers: Journeys and Dreams from Food Systems Leaders, you’ll be immersed in a colorful illustration of the leadership, spunk, ingenuity and fearlessness that makes up this movement for more equitable and just food systems. As you read through these stories, we hope you feel inspired, motivated, and more connected to this vibrant community of incredible humans working in communities across the country.

We have immense gratitude for all the leaders who shared their journeys, struggles, and lessons with us, and to all of you working day in and day out to realize more just, equitable, and sustainable food systems.

Thank you to Real Food Media for the beautiful imagery and design, and the W.K. Kellogg Foundation for supporting this project.
