"In "Re-food", Emily King advocates for a food systems approach to help the troubled food networks of Aotearoa New Zealand - one that takes into account the processes from the farm to the family table. She looks at the best ways forward to address challenges we face with soils, waterways, climate change, food waste, packaging, unhealthy diets, and a lack of access to food. Written in three parts - Grow, Make and Nourish - "Re-food" traverses the full food system and unpacks its issues along the way while providing timely and relevant ideas and inspiration for readers to solve these problems themselves. It offers tools, insights and mindset changes that chart a path towards a healthier, more sustainable food future, one which incorporates Te Ao Maori and our strengths as a top-quality food-producing nation."--
