I'm doing a project to learn how Lumbee food traditions are kept alive today. I'm talking with Lumbee community members about the meals they cook, the gardens they grow, and the stories they remember. These food traditions, like making cornbread or growing collards, help show who we are and where we come from.

By recording these stories, I hope to help keep them alive for future generations.
