One of the most important connections I’m working in my life is the connection to my food, I believe that the mass production of unhealthy food to satisfy the needs of the growing population has stressed the web of life. For that reason I try to grow my food and to ethically provide my own protein. My belief is that by strengthening our relationships with local farmers and growers and by understanding the life and death cycle of the animals we eat we can provide a safer future for the planet. Because of this belief system, being capable of hunting, trapping and foraging my own food is what makes me a more ethical, grounded and complete human. Being able to show this journey to others so they may think about their relationship to their food made this Alone survival journey the necessary and responsible thing to do.
