We are volunteers for Tule Lake Committee, a California-based nonprofit that organizes educational tours and preservation work at the former Tule Lake War Relocation Center in Newell, California. Inspired by the biennial Pilgrimages, we have begun to gather recipes and oral histories related to food and farming from former incarcerees/internees, family members, scholars, friends, redress activists, and Pilgrimage attendees.

Hi Jeffrey,
I’m happy to talk to you about the event on January 29, 2012 at the Sacramento Buddhist Church. My number is 510-841-2143. If you give me your number I can call you back.
Thanks,
Stacy
Will the cookbooks be available for purchase?
Depending on when we collect enough recipes and stories, we may have it ready by the summer.
I work at the Wing Luke Museum in Seattle. We may be interested in helping with the project or even possibly selling the cookbook in our Marketplace store. Would love more information.
Thanks, Vivian! We’re in the very early stages of collecting stories and recipes for the book as we speak. I’ll email you more information and am happy to talk to you about how you could help! I love the Wing Luke Museum, by the way!
