Part 3.

What can recovery and resilience in our food and farming systems look like in the wake of the Coronavirus pandemic? After investigating our dominant industrial food system, its roots in colonialism and its relevance to the pandemic in episodes 1 and 2, we now look beyond to what true resilience can look like. Leading the way in the indigenous community of Tharaka in Kenya, is Simon Mitambo and his team at SALT (Society for Alternative Learning and Transformation). Through the revival of lost traditions, seed, craft and spiritual practices, Simon tells us their inspiring story of resilience in the red, dusty foothills of Mount Kenya.
