Sobremesa with Francesca Farris

A conversation on food, community and betting on yourself

For this first edition of Sobremesa, I interviewed the talented Francesca Farris, a food systems enthusiast and aspiring shepherd based in Southern Italy. She shared her favorite aspects of living on the Italian islands of Sicily and Sardinia. She also discusses the most challenging parts of moving across the globe, learning the language, and building a support network in a small community. I am so grateful for the candidness of her responses, and I’m sure you will leave feeling as inspired as I did.
