TESIA LOVE, nutritionist, gardener, priestess over food




"To turn on television, or go to a website and find an expert on food who is African-American is exciting. It removes the image of white folks in relation to food as experts, the experts!  There are many people, myself included, who associated food with the sacred, brown and black skin, mothering, comfort, intense work, and rythmns. Tesia Love is one such woman in the mix of a tradition African folk have taken for granted for centuries.  This is an African experience."

-Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories
