RECIPE ARCHIVE
Finally, in keeping with our mission to incorporate heritage and connection, the team designed and piloted a recipe archive—a series of postcards that invite people to share recipes made from whole ingredients. We created the archive to collect and preserve the vast communal knowledge about cooking and food—knowledge that may be lost if not kept alive and shared. Recipe postcards pose questions such as “What would Grandma cook?” and “How would you make this dish from scratch?” Our aim was to raise awareness across generations that by cooking with fresh, whole ingredients, we can create healthy meals that restore our connection to food. Investigating the diverse narratives behind food preparation, we also better understood the need for greater knowledge sharing and community building in an ongoing dialogue around food.
