Episode Sixteen: Tamara Green

Tamara Green combines Indigenous cuisine with personal chef services as the Indigenesis Personal Chef. Tamara and Marion discuss what makes her practice unique, how she creates menus, and how she obtains ingredients. Tamara shares the role that food plays in Indigenous culture and how she seeks to provide traditional foods that are both restorative and creates a meaningful experience. Tamara explains her own link to Indigenous food and how it has shaped the way she eats and cooks. Tamara also describes her responsible foraging techniques and the opportunities that allowed her to build up her business in a small community. Tamara will be back at this year’s Culture Days celebration with her Indigenous Food Pop Up on Saturday, September 24th from 11 am to 3 pm.
