Episode 10: Agro-activist, Tara Rodriguez Besosa Sundays at Café Tabac - The Podcast

Tara Rodríguez Besosa (she/they/ellx), born, raised and based in Borikén (Puerto Rico), works at the powerful intersection of queer community and food sovereignty, often sharing how queer and agroecological practices are essential for the transition from extractive to regenerative food systems, as well as collective models and shared resources that empower those who grow, cook, and work towards decolonized bodies and lands.
She is co-founder of projects ranging from a DIY architect-run gallery in Brooklyn, to El Departamento de la Comida in Puerto Rico, to arts venues like El Local en Santurce and a collective queer land project, OtraCosa.

In this episode, Tara recounts her hesitation, desire and ultimate coming out to her beloved Abuela (grandmother).
