Lynn Peemoeller is a food systems planner. In her work, she utilizes fields of natural sciences, urban planning, policy, agriculture, food, culture, activism, and the arts in a social practice. She uses food primarily as an investigation into questions of identity, culture, and place. Peemoeller aims to stand in the circle of community while co-creating and choreographing situations in which publics can engage in tactile, narrative, or performative actions in which we use the symbolism and materiality of food to explore place and identity and create both subjective and objective meanings. Lynn has a growing body of work that explores the role of gardeners, seed savers, supermarket workers and everyday cooks as anchors of community and culture.  She is a Lecturer in the Sam Fox School of Design of Design and Visual Arts at Washington University in the Landscape Architecture Department.
