Family Feed

What is Family Feed? What am I hoping to create here? Why do I continue to make content? Who is it for and what do I hope they will get from it?

In all honestly I hope that Family Feed evolves and moves and never feels permanent and boxed in. But in its essence I hope to encourage connection for you and your family.

I believe that the dinner table builds family and community. Sharing food with our community is an ancient practice of love, sanctuary and survival. As parents we have the opportunity to pass our practices, traditions and culture on to our children. Food feeds the soul.

I believe that time together around the table, eating a meal is a profound way to love and be loved.

I believe that there is joy in doing more of the things that fill your cup, being creative, taking your own path, trying something new, being open to play and experimentation, taking time out to rest, dream, plan and create.

These are the hopes I have for my family. To live with integrity and alignment between who we are on the inside and who we show up as on the outside.

Family Feed encourages connection for you and your family

Gemma Walsh Woodcock

Founded in 2020 in the heart of the Covid-19 pandemic – with a new baby in my arms and a toddler by my side – I created Family Feed, with the help of my husband Jim, to be a creative project of sanctuary in motherhood.

I want Family Feed to remain a creative, joyful project that energises me. I want Family Feed to continue to be disconnected from work and responsibility. To be a space to play and experiment with writing, image and conversation. I don’t have a social media strategy or a plan and I’m not looking for one either. Family Feed is a project I will pick up and put down when my energy requires.
