Eat locally

My brilliant baby sister sent a link to a Boston Globe article about growing interest in eating locally. Excellent.

"This is about culture, a diversified rural landscape, and access to fresh distinctive foods that are best produced locally," says Burrington. "We still have a New England where a lot of people -- city kids, suburban families, sixth-generation farmers -- have some involvement in growing or harvesting food, where the landscape features fields and orchards as well as forests, and where you can eat corn, berries, apples picked the same day. If we can still say that in another 20 years, the local food movement will have succeeded."

And on that theme, my wonderful boss gave me a t-shirt from the Good News Cafe, a restauraunt in Connecticut that emphasizes local, organic produce. The slogan on the back is "To your health, eat well, save the farm." Right on!
