Cooking and eating together was an important part of daily life at the camp, and comes up a lot in people's account of being at the camp.
While some might understand the 'politics' of the camp to be about the blockades, the nonviolent civil disobedience, arrests and trials, for many the alternative practice of camp life was another crucial form of politics. Food was an intrinsic aspect of how direct action was understood and practiced, as not only for the morning blockades, but also as key in the work to manifest a different way of living and building community through collective food preparation, cooking and eating together.
