Cookies Class Travels to Zumwalt Acres

By Advisors Kelly Liu and Gigi Mathews
Recently, we took a trip during our US Cookies class, organized by the Asian Alliance, to Zumwalt Acres and hooked up with Lexi Weintraub ’00.

Weintraub invited us to the farm because this summer, they have a fellowship, “DiGen.” They are hosting an “experimental, collective project of Chinese diasporic land stewardship and study. The DiGen Fellowship will bring people with Chinese ancestry together to build relationships with our plant relatives, connect with our roots (lands, traditions, ancestors, stories) and study and chart pathways for the political mobilization of Chinese diasporic communities.”

We all had a great time!
