Join us at Ridgeline Brewing to hear from Corrie Locke-Hardy as she demonstrates a tea blend from her new cookbook, a revolutionary marvel called The Revolution Will Be Well Fed. You will get to sample the tea and have the chance for questions, organizing with your fellow community members, and more!
Author Corrie Locke-Hardy (she/they) is the owner of The Tiny Activist, a consulting business that focuses social justice education and literacy. For their “first career,” Corrie spent nine years in the hospitality industry cooking professionally, concentrating on pastry and bread. She worked in a wide range of establishments, which reinforced the message that community is key. This cookbook is a combination of Corrie’s lifelong passions for education, activism, and yummy treats.
The Revolution Will Be Well Fed features gluten-free recipes for snacking on while community organizing, as well as essays and history exploring the connections between food, community, and social movements.*
Chapters include breakfast, snacks, and dessert, as well as essays about important events, organizations, and individuals that have placed community at the core of their work. Read about the Black Panther Party’s free breakfast program while making coffee cake, learn about sit-ins and strikes while snacking on hand pies, or gather for dessert to honor the people who laid the groundwork for sustained social movements. Readers can carry on the message of valuing community over capitalism through acts, both big and small, that prioritize inclusivity for every member of society.
*Note: The recipes were developed using all-purpose gluten-free flour but readers can easily swap in all-purpose wheat flour. The recipes are intended to be flexible, scalable, and easy to pack. Bring them along to a potluck, your next community planning meeting, or even to the picket line!

This was super fun today, I had never been to Ridgeline! My son had a blast throwing plastic axes at this bullseye thing there (it’s all-ages). We got to make our own herbal blends and drink little teas! I would not have known about this unless you posted @GraySkies, so thank you!
