Our Mission
Raise awareness and educate 22 million people by 2030 that FOOD IS MEDICINE!
Diet not only prevents disease but also reverses chronic illness.
The Tour
Nicolette Richer completed a 7,120 km bike and run journey across Canada as part of the 22 Million Strong initiative.
Beginning at the Terry Fox statue in Victoria, BC and continuing across the country, Nicolette took time along the way to connect with members of BIPOC communities to discuss food systems, health, and the importance of reconnecting with traditional whole foods and community knowledge.
Throughout the journey, Nicolette and her team engaged in conversations around food sovereignty, economic development, and community-based approaches to health and wellbeing, while exploring how traditional whole foods can support chronic disease prevention and long-term healing.
Our Documentaries
Grounded in my Roots
A profound film that takes you on a momentous journey. This film reminds us to reconnect with our ancestors so we can all learn how to decolonize our diets, reverse chronic illnesses and use the power of real food to heal our bodies and the planet.
Food of our Ancestors
This film outlines our 22 Million Strong mission—to bring awareness that food is medicine and can be used to reverse chronic illness.
After discovering that the food programs she had been offering others were rooted in her ancestral foodways, she journeys through BIPOC communities to learn, share and empower others to embrace traditional healing foods.
A. To help Canadians remember that traditional whole foods are medicine and that lifestyle chronic degenerative diseases can be reversed, not just managed or prevented.
B. To pinpoint the systemic social, economic and environmental barriers to achieving optimal health in remote and rural communities of Canada.
C. To create and build lasting friendships built on a mutual desire to heal the people and the land.
