All About Alliums
“The land is an agricultural and social experiment run by Jessie Breslau and Elise de Jong that weaves together agroecological and community building practices. The majority of food that we grow on our 1200m? Plot is not sold, but used in the workshops, dinners, and events that we host in and near amsterdam. We believe in building relationships through and around food and feel that those bonds strengthen with every possible tactility. Our name, and its lack of capital letters stem from building our practice out of commons-based theory and our desire not to claim ownership of the land that we farm, but rather to represent that this project is one that is intended to be communally tended.
As a social and agricultra project we aim to use our produce and our cooking to bring people together and to share in the different knowledges and infor mation that we all have, these zines are an extension of this project which can serve as an introduction, reminder, or catalyst for ways to connect with ourselves and others through what we eat and how we cook. All About Alliums was designed by Sophia Dorfsman and is part of a (physically) growing series that will increase in submission numbers and physical size.”
