TEAMS POP-UP
MARS POCHA
Pocha 포차 is a Korean street food tent where people gather to drink, snack, argue, confess, and stay awhile. It is emotional medicine. A place where hot messes ferment into more livable, interdependent futures. Mars Pocha invites mission-driven organizations into that tent.
But this time we gather on Mars.
Inspired by teams navigating complexity and transitions. For Teams.
This is a half-day, fully facilitated experience by June Jo Lee, food ethnographer and cultural strategist.
Why Mars
Designing food for Mars becomes a strategic lens for rethinking nourishment, resilience, and responsibility here on Earth.
Your work shapes how people eat, learn, farm, gather, and care. Yet teams today are stretched thin. Outcome-driven. Disconnected from deeper meaning. They are tasked with building futures that do not yet exist. In a climate of real constraint.
Mars is a provocation. Extreme constraint creates extreme clarity.
What does life actually require?
What systems sustain human flourishing?
What is essential? What is noise?
Mars Pocha is not about space food. It is about designing livable systems. And remembering that nourishment is always social, ecological, and emotional.
