    Ep.10 Feeding the Future

    Many Jewish institutions are facing a decline in young adult engagement compared to that of older generations. Could food and land-based programming be the solution? Hear from returning and new guests about how they get young people through the door (virtually and irl), and how previously disengaged Jews are finding community and connection through Jewish outdoor, food, farming, and environmental education (JOFEE) programs.  Want to learn more about something you heard on the show? Here's the Seeds of Opportunity report mentioned in the episode.  Click here for Hazon's list of JOFEE partner organizations. They also have a podcast series about some of the programs.  One of the guests in this episode, Ilana Zackon, who lives in Moishe House Vancouver, hosts another Jewish podcast: The CJN's Bonjour Chai. Check it out!
