Food That I Grew

Watch as Rob explains his journey in growing his own food for a whole year and eating nothing but that. It’s really amazing!

What are some sustainable practices that individuals can adopt to support a healthier planet?

In today’s world, we are used to being able to walk into a grocery store and purchase any type of food we desire. However, one man, Rob Greenfield, decided to challenge himself and live for a year only consuming food that he grew or foraged himself.

Greenfield’s journey began in 2016, when he felt a disconnect from the food system and the impact it has on our planet. He wanted to prove that it’s possible to live sustainably and in harmony with nature. For one year, Greenfield grew his own vegetables, fruits, and herbs, and foraged for wild edibles like mushrooms, berries, and nuts.

Living off the land was not without its challenges. Greenfield had to learn how to grow his own food, often relying on trial and error. He also had to learn how to forage safely and effectively, ensuring that he didn’t eat anything poisonous.

Greenfield’s self-sufficient lifestyle also meant that he had to get creative with his cooking. He learned to make his own bread, pasta, and even cheese. He also used natural sweeteners like honey and maple syrup to satisfy his sweet tooth.

Despite the challenges, Greenfield’s year of living off the land was a success. He was able to not only meet his own basic needs but also donate excess food to local food banks. He also drastically reduced his carbon footprint, as he didn’t rely on transportation to get his food.

Greenfield’s journey highlights the importance of being mindful of where our food comes from and the impact it has on the planet. Eating locally, growing your own food, and foraging for wild edibles are all sustainable practices that can reduce our carbon footprint and support a healthier planet.

In conclusion, living for a year only consuming food that he grew or foraged himself was a challenging but rewarding experience for Rob Greenfield. It not only taught him important life skills but also highlighted the importance of being mindful of our food choices and their impact on the planet.
