Winter 2020 – Issue 30

🌱 “As I grew older and began considering my own career, I knew I wanted to do something related to food. Food has always been central to my life.”

Perspective: “Rooted In Resilience” by Maria de Lourdes Orozco (@mariaaoro)

“One of my earliest memories is the short walk to my grandparents’ farm, where we gathered fresh vegetables, dairy and honey to enjoy. Our lives were deeply intertwined with the land and the bounty it provided…

ABOUT MARIA
Originally from Jalisco, Mexico, and raised in California, Maria Orozco comes to Cornell with experience in small-scale farmer education, bilingual information delivery, and specialty crop research. Her family’s roots in agriculture influenced Maria to pursue her Bachelor of Science in Sustainable Agriculture and Food Systems at the University of California, Davis. At UC Davis, Maria also minored in Chicana/o/x Studies with an emphasis on Community and Regional Development to better advocate for a just and equitable food system to improve the quality of life for BIPOC and underserved farmers.

Before joining Cornell’s MPS program in Global Development, Maria worked for the University of California, Agriculture and Natural Resources (UC ANR) with the UC Small Farms Network on the Central Coast. As a Community Education Specialist and a Staff Research Associate, she assisted producers experiencing hardship due to drought and extreme weather events by providing technical assistance and facilitating the process for grants. Alongside farm advisors, Maria has assisted growers who are not covered by traditional commodity-based extension programs to research agave, subtropical fruits, and other specialty crops. Her Spanish language proficiency and research interests in specialty crops have allowed Maria to help break language barriers and close knowledge gaps. Thus, she is committed to continuing to empower farmers through outreach and education to address the ever-evolving needs of underserved and marginalized communities in our food systems.

🎶 Tired of the same holiday songs that have bee

🎶 Tired of the same holiday songs that have been playing for the last 2 months? Give this curated Winter 2024 Playlist a listen, courtesy from our very own @dustinjklemann!

“Achieving the right mood for a solo night of drinking hot cocoa, baking cookies with family or imbibing with friends starts with music. And just like food, there are seasons for music.”

Loose rules to consider:
⭐️ Don’t pass the aux. This is YOUR playlist. Decline Sally and Steve’s suggestion to “check out this mashup I found on Soundcloud.” Tell them to play it in the car on the way home (bah-humbug, sure).

⭐️ Get nostalgic! You’ll notice this playlist has a healthy habit of nostalgia. They may not be the top hits, but they mean something to you. Lean into it. Feel the feelings this holiday season.

⭐️ Map out the bangers. Winter music isn’t all slow hymns. Pepper in the upbeat, the poppy, or if you’re feeling randy, the face-melting metal. Note this playlist doesn’t satisfy the last portion of the previous sentence. Stretch into it; this isn’t a sprint.

⭐️ Make it a revolving door of songs. Swap in, swap out. You are the director and this is your ensemble. Feel free to crank the volume when the conversation becomes a bit too loud to hear your cast. Also don’t be afraid to skip a song if you’re not feeling it.
