Stories from the Table is inspired by the heartwarming Netflix film NONNAS. Across cultures and generations, food has always been more than just a meal; it’s a way to pass down love, wisdom, and tradition. Around kitchen tables and over shared dishes, grandparents, grandfriends, and other older loved ones keep family traditions alive, teach life lessons, and create lasting memories that connect us across time.
Through Stories from the Table, we invite people to honor those connections by sharing the recipes, food traditions, and memories that link them to their grandparents and generations before them. Whether it’s a treasured holiday dish, a recipe taught by an older loved one, or the story of a meal that brought your family together, your contribution becomes part of a larger celebration of heritage, connection, and care. Together, we can shed light on the vital role older adults play in preserving culture and fostering bonds between generations.
