The NATIVE. MADE. Market - What is it? When is it? Why is it happening?
/
"This event is more than a market. It’s an opportunity for communities to learn about Native culture and history through intimate conversations, instead of through glass in museums and textbooks. Our family believes in building bridges between communities by breaking bread. The NATIVE. MADE. event brings a diverse group of Indigenous peoples and Allies together to share that we are still here, we are active members in our communities, and we are choosing to be part of a new fabric being woven at this time for generations to come." Angelina Hilton, Event Curator, POP ROC Co-founder, Member of Sac and Fox Nation of Missouri in Kansas and Nebraska and of Iowa descent.

The need to feed has been exacerbated by the pandemic and has significantly slowed the progress of reaching the United Nations Sustainable Development goal number two, zero hunger, by 2030.
Bottom line. People are hungry. So on the fourth Friday of every month, from 12pm to 1pm at 45 Euclid St, expect to be served an exceptional meal for free.
To add some flavor, fun and joy to this event, we’ve turned this into a Chef Challenge. The “challenge” is, the chef gets the main ingredients one week ahead of time. Then they have to create something for 75-100 people out of it.

They’re iconic for one.
Second, they remind me of Saturday mornings from my childhood. The aroma of hot fresh baked Pillsbury buttermilk biscuits coming from the kitchen. Mom would slather them with butter and jam. The bowl of Trix cereal with the spoons that changed color when you put it in the milk. After breakfast we’d go watch cartoons and play with our toys.
