Activist Tests Food Self-Sufficiency: Rob Greenfield lives on foraged food; studies flag urban soil risks

From November 11, 2018 to November 11, 2019, activist Rob Greenfield set out to see whether he could meet all of his food needs by growing or foraging for everything he ate. WUSF described how, for 365 days in Orlando, Florida, he avoided grocery stores, restaurants, takeout and food prepared by friends. He completed the project in November 2019 and later documented it in the book Food Freedom: A Year of Growing and Foraging 100 Percent of My Food , as noted in National Geographic’s profile of Rob Greenfield.
