dare arowe (she/her) is a mixed Black femme grower, instigator, and culinary historian growing and cooking resistance food for the people on one acre within the ancestral lands of the Big Valley Pomo in Northern California. With an expansive curiosity about cultures and the foods that define them, dare began working her way through the culinary industry over a decade ago. Now, dare subverts slavery-based dynamics of the service industry through food, celebration, and research at Good Trouble Farm + Table (a micro-farm, kitchen, and ceremonial gathering space) and Root + Hand (a culinary history project remembering the discipline of Spirit Rice, medicinal herbs, and ritual).
