Specialty:

I’m Amelia, and I’m a food doula. A doula originally referred to a companion – meaning “the one who breaks bread with another” from the Latin root com (together with) panis (bread). I use food to accompany people through change. In keeping with the doula tradition, I offer non-medical holistic care. I have over a decade’s worth of experience in food service, food cultivation, food systems, food justice, food distribution, and food culture. I have worked for various farms, studied and practiced permaculture, started a seed library that grew into a network of seed libraries, helped organize a union, and trained in culinary nutrition to be certified as a natural food chef.
How we feed ourselves is one of the ways we practice our values – or inhabit someone else’s. I’d be honored to accompany anyone seeking to move into deeper alignment with their values in this way.
