Announcements and some links to Autumn related goodness
a brief post to share a new location where people can buy my book and some autumn nourishment for those craving colorful leaves and nourishing recipe ideas
Hello everyone!
Recipes For Reciprocity: The Regenerative Way From Seed To Table is now available at River Bookshop in Amherstburg, Ontario!
I would like to express a huge thanks to the helpful, open minded and intelligent staff of River Bookshop for their help in making it possible to have my book on the shelf.
I would also like to take off my hat and offer a nod of respect to the staff and owner(s) of River Bookshop for including (and raising awareness about) Banned Books and shining a spotlight on indigenous authors in their shop. It takes real integrity and courage to stand up to censorship and many of the traditional indigenous worldviews (relating to animism, reciprocity, gift economics and regenerative agroforestry) provide a much needed medicine for our human family on this world where many parasitic corporation dominated statist regimes have lost their way.
I am also grateful that River Bookshop devotes a special space to nourishing the minds of young ones.
Thank you to the staff of River Bookshop for doing your part to ensure future generations will have access to a diverse array of perspectives as they chart their own path and hone their own moral compasses.
I highly recommend checking out the store if you are in the local area or visiting, it has a wonderful selection, a lovely ambiance and is situated near many great restaurants and other shops to make a fun day of it.

Now for some autumn offerings for those of you craving vibrant leaves filled with anthocyanin and simmering pots filled with aromatic garden harvests.
Here are a couple posts I shared in the past that offer some of my autumn photography and my thoughts on the wisdom, nourishment for the mind and food for the soul offered by the season of Autumn.
I hope you enjoy the photos and I hope you will take some time to get out there and breath in the beauty all around you and preserve some of that seasonal abundance available in the forest and farmer’s markets! Enjoy!
And how for some of my favorite fall recipes, I like to ‘create stick to your gut’ type recipes at this time of year. Hearty soups and savory dishes that embrace the fall harvests of things like sweet potatoes, pumpkins, cabbage, kale, beans, amaranth and beets.
I hope you will try some of these recipes, share them with friends and loved ones and let me know how they go for you :)
I wish you all many peaceful, nourishing and joyful moments this fall.
Those dishes look gorgeous and delicious! We’ve just harvested a huge crop of sweet potatoes—can’t wait to try them in your recipe with cashews. Had the first ones for dinner last night roasted with just flavored olive oil and garlic and they were so good. I think I’ll ferment some again too, but with a different spice combo than the West African I tried last year, that one was too heavy on the whole coriander for me.
If you have a suggestion for what might work well in a sweet potato ferment, please do share!
Beautiful, delicious, and wise!
