Welcome to the Table. It's not my table, or your table. It's everyone's table. But, not everyone has the same kind of access to "the table." Each episode is an interview with an entrepreneurial instigator who has created their own food or hunger focused project to help end hunger in their community. In addition to learning from people who have already scaled the learning curve, we also offer coaching resources for making your own food or hunger focused project more effective. If you'd like to help make this project more effective, consider joining the Patron's Table at Patreon.com/healingspringsacres
