Steve Sabicer, food writer and former butcher shop owner, draws on a life lived across farms and cities, boardrooms and butcher blocks, to examine what modern humans have gained—and lost—in our relationship with food and nature. Through stories from the butcher counter, urban agriculture, and observations of omnivores in the wild, Sabicer explores how adaptability, craft, and intention shape our food systems—and our humanity—challenging us to rethink efficiency, resilience, and what it truly means to connect, reconnect, and thrive.
