E89: Bryce Stevenson – Actual Shifts in the Wind

In this episode, I talk with Ojibwe chef Bryce Stevenson who is also the owner of Miijim in La Pointe, Wisconsin, an island in Lake Superior. He’s also a pretty talented poet whose work is included in the zine “Heart Rations: Indigenous Food Poetry.” Bryce is a creative guy who also takes up carpentry work during the off season, a necessity for folks who work on an island like La Pointe.

through the destruction
of life - the results of
which, wasted.
