Sam's dissertation and entire social life revolve around food that's not for sale in Vermont. The "non-market food practices" he studies and does include gardening, fishing, foraging, gifts, barter, charity, dumpster diving, and other forms of food self-provisioning and sharing. Sam teaches at the University of Vermont's Department of Community Development and Applied Economics when they'll hire him to do so. He also organizes a mutual aid project called Food Not Cops and yells in a band called Marxist Jargon.
