Top 10 Produce Gods (Livestream) - The History of Fresh Produce

The Produce Industry Podcast w/ Patrick Kelly

For centuries, people from all walks of life have turned to gods and goddesses to ensure a bountiful harvest. The myths surrounding these deities are as diverse as they are fascinating, with stories of forbidden fruits, underworld bargains, and even gods donning flayed skins. But what common threads run through these ancient tales from distant cultures? What can these myths reveal about the societies that believed in them, and their deep ties to the land? Were these gods objects of fear, reverence, or a little of both? And do they still hold sway over modern worshippers?

Join John and Patrick for this month’s livestream, where they each reveal their top five produce deities, exploring everything from Greek to Aztec mythology and beyond.
