Commoning Food Sovereignty Workbook Overview

Viewing food as a commons rather than a commodity allows us to address the inabilities of the current food regime to provide food for those who cannot afford the market price point. A commons defines a shared management of an essential resource to ensure equitably shared access and use by the community that manages the resource.

The Commoning Food Sovereignty Workbook will deepen the community understanding of a local commons food system within the greater Ypsi-Ann Arbor community, grounded in the past and present and opening to the future.
