Abstract

This memoir reflects on the roles that milpa has played in my life as a child of the Salvadorian Diaspora and a solidarity activist with Central America. I use my lived experience as a site to explore how milpa, the tradition of maize, beans, and squashes and vegetables, are embedded with ‘sticky memories and emotions’, teaching lessons on family, love, difficulty, trauma, resistance, and resilience, across generations.
