I’m Kaitlin Grady, Director of Strategic Partnerships at Clever Carnivore, a #Chicago based cultivated meat company. Previously @ the Good Food Institute. Hellbent on scaling alternative proteins for the climate & removing animals from the supply chain. Classically-trained cellist & songwriter.
Lots of new people joining Bluesky, and lots of great starter packs floating around, so here’s another idea: if you work at the intersection of food/agriculture, nature, and climate, introduce yourself and what you do below so folks can keep connecting. Who’s here now?

It’s even more extreme than that if you want full self-sufficiency. The average US diet requires ~2 acres of land (cropland + pasture)/person/year. So a family of 4 would need ~8 acres.

(It’s less if you eat more plants/fewer animal proteins than avg American, but it’s still a looooot of land.)
On Threads, the usual suspects are telling ppl about to lose SNAP benefits to just start a garden. As a gardener, I had to laugh. You need at LEAST an acre of land to feed a family of 4. Start-up costs are enormous. But yes, subsistence farming on the balcony of your rental apartment is the answer
thanks, my strong friend! 💪🏻

One of the nice parts about cooking without meat is that you don't need to treat any of your utensils like a biohazard because you aren't getting meat juices on them.
Just taught my midwestern bf the term “nabs.” Do yall know what nabs are?
