    Episode 5: Food is Community – I Taught Her How to Make French Toast

    This World Food Day, we sit down with well-known chef Dennis Prescott to talk food and how his love of sharing food led him to Joyce Kilpimo in Kenya. A hunger free world is one where meals are shared, community is fostered and there's always enough to go around, especially for moms, children and babies. When we experience the joy of sharing food, we realize that good food, nutritious food and diverse foods are essential—and not just for our bodies. It’s critical for our minds, hearts and spirits too. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
