Samantha Hawker has been part of the Local Food Movement in this region for over a decade, with particular interest in indigenous land management, permaculture and food sovereignty. 

She believes in creating food that nourishes the body and soul, while nourishing the Earth and our rediscovery of the deep reciprocal connections that once were. Sam has a relationship with most producers who provide our food (including from The Wilde gardens).

Sam is our Retreat Caterer, and can meet most dietary requirements. She’s especially interested in educating people how to be in realationship with food, via production, season and story.
