891: Creating Food System Change with Hayden Caraway
Building the Homegrown Collective.
In This Podcast:
Hayden Caraway shares his initiative, Homegrown Collective, a platform aimed at transforming the food system by connecting consumers with responsibly grown and locally sourced food. Hayden, who faced health issues due to processed foods, was inspired by food practices in places like Costa Rica and Italy. Through this nonprofit platform, local food producers can gain free online exposure and sell directly to consumers, making it easier for them despite limited marketing budgets. The platform is both a website and a mobile app, designed for user convenience and community support. The conversation covers the platform’s development, its reception, upcoming plans, and Hayden’s personal journey and motivations. Listeners are encouraged to quiet their minds, focus on their goals, and support local food systems.
