LUTONG GIPIT: Mga Recipe sa Panahon ng Krisis

A project of Amihan National Federation of Peasant Women, Rural Women Advocates, and Gantala Press, “Lutong Gipit: Mga Recipe sa Panahon ng Krisis” lists down the coping measures these women have taken and continue to take amid an economic crisis brought about by the pandemic. The book highlights the plight of poor peasant families and the struggle for a three-meal day due to loss of livelihood and skyrocketing prices of basic commodities, amid inadequate or no aid at all from the government. To remedy this, women had to rely on each other through “food on the table” initiatives by planting vegetables, root crops, and others produce, maintaining community gardens, or cultivating communal farms.

Printed copies to be available soon! Sales of the pdf and printed copies will support the call for subsidy of peasant communities by Amihan, RUWA, and Gantala Press.
