I wish the host provided contact information for the people that’s interviewed. I’d love to support the guests on the show. I always have to Google these folks to find their socials and website information. A simple link in the show notes would be great! Please consider adding this touch to the show notes 🌻

First time ever being on a podcast. The Edible Activist Melissa Jones was very professional. She also made me feel comfortable while I was being interviewed. I have also listened to some of the other podcast interviews which were very informative. The Edible Activist podcast provides an up close and personal perspective of an vast array of people in the food chain chain.

This is a great podcast that highlights important topics and issues! Keep up the excellent content!

I love everything about this! Such a great contribution to the podcast space. Much needed. Melissa’s delightful passion shines through every episode. A sincere pleasure to listen to.

This podcast is the TRUTH!! The way Melissa navigates conversation with her guests is admirable. From food justice to farming and wellness, I enjoy every episode. Tune in y'all. This podcast is bigger than what it seems!

This was a dope interview! I learned a lot and am ready to share these concepts with others. Can’t wait to listen to the next one and begin implementing what I’ve learned. Thank you!

Melissa L Jones is my go to podcast host when I need to be reminded of all the folks trying to make the world a better place on whatever scale through a connection with the earth and nature. She and her guests drop pearls of wisdom that stick with me and sustain me throughout the week. I haven’t found any other podcast in the community gardening food empowering space like it

Love the Podcast Episode 100: This Lady crazy !

So much of today's food movements are overrun and overwhelmed by white people. This podcast with Melissa Jones puts those spaces to shame, showing the dynamic and exciting work of Black and Brown individuals to shape and make food movements with POC voices and experiences in mind. Highly recommend this podcast to all food activists and foodies alike!

I really enjoy the storytelling and important topics covered in this podcast. Thanks for putting this out into the world!

Great topics with real stories of people doing the work to create change in their communities 💕

I’ve listened to nearly every episode of The Edible Activist podcast and highly, highly recommend it! Melissa, her team and her guests shine a beautiful light on the food stories of black and brown people. Our narratives are as rich as the soil that grows our food.

As a DC resident working in the urban agriculture world, I am always trying to stay in-the-know with relevent folks doing awesome work. I specifically love this podcast because it elevates BIPOC and Melissa is a fantastic interviewer. Great stories, great people.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this podcast!! Eye opening content!!! Inspirational guests. I’m a true fan. Thank you for your vision, Melissa.

Real gem of a podcast for DC voices and love Melissa's style of interviewing!

The Edible Activist Podcast is a much needed platform that gives people of color the opportunities to write their own narratives in the DC food space and beyond. I feel heard, awakened and inspired by the guest that come on the podcast every week. They remind me that we as a people are powerful and that I too can be an edible activist.

Really love what this podcast represents for veganism and plant-based living! Just found this podcast and I’m already bingeing. Excited to learn along with you!

I am only a few episodes in and I absolutely love your podcast style. Very informative, passionate and down-to-earth with thought-provoking conversations. Enjoyed the inspirational Turning Natural episode and will definitely visit when I’m in the DMV area again! Looking forward to catching up on the other episodes.

Want to learn more about Black farmers and professionals in the heath and food fields? This podcast is your go-to. I’ve gained an abundance of information and energy from The Edible Activist.

This is such a great series of food stories, brought to life by the incomparable Melissa Jones, who has been hosting food talks in the DC area for the past few years. Hearing Melissa talk with her guests is like hanging out with them in the kitchen; Melissa is so relaxed and friendly, and her laugh is infectious. So it's fun to listen to, but this is important work she is creating. We need to hear the stories of people of color in the food space, and Melissa does an excellent job of weaving in all the issues that stem from our food system: health, social justice, the relationship to the land, and so much more. Totally recommend this podcast!

This is a very awesome show! It has opened my eyes to so many aspects and good stories from people all around the world. I love hearing about their journeys. Makes me want to embrace my cultural background and dig deeper into my roots to see how my family embraced their social connections through food. I look forward to several other stories to come !

Hats off to this podcaster for creating a platform meant to educate and promote nutritional wellbeing all while making it entertaining. I love hearing the stories of various individuals food journeys. Going along with them on their path to food enlightenment. Physical health should be at the top of everyone’s list of priorities and I will definitely utilize this podcast as a great source for my health journey.

There’s something about Melissa’s ability to captivate an audience. Her nature is humble and real, making it so easy to connect with the segments regardless of your cultural background. I particularly appreciate her creativity in connecting listeners to her mission. It really makes you stop, think and want to learn more. K. Georgallas, Silver Spring MD
