Key Topics Covered

Communal Living and the Gift Economy

Milholland discusses the philosophy that when we receive something, it’s not meant to be hoarded but to be passed on, even if just in spirit. This idea of giving and receiving as a cycle, akin to inhaling and exhaling, is central to building and sustaining vibrant communities.

She reflects on growing up in a communal household where the guiding belief was, “We only deserve it if we share it.” She connects this to the concept of the gift economy, inspired by Lewis Hyde’s book The Gift, where the act of receiving is intrinsically tied to the obligation of passing something on.

Food as a Spiritual Practice

Food is at the heart of Group Living And Other Recipes and Milholland’s current work as a food entrepreneur. She shares how food not only nourishes but also serves as a means of connecting people, fostering community, and maintaining cultural traditions. Recipes included in her book are gifts from her life’s journey, shared with readers to continue the cycle of giving.

Communal Living, Land Trusts & Other Forms of Living and Owning

Milholland discusses how communal living, co-housing, land trusts and other radical approaches to property and wealth can pave the way for more connected and sustainable communities.

Influences and Inspiration

Learn about the significant influence of Lola’s brother, Zach, who taught her the importance of care in cooking, and how her mother’s involvement with Organic Valley helped shape her views on food and community.

Umi Organic and School Lunches

Milholland talks about her noodle company, Umi Organic, and its commitment to providing nutritious school lunches in Portland, Oregon.
