Tamela Rich In case you missed this

Josh Dorf, who owns the Stone-Buhr flour brand, runs FindtheFarmer, which enables buyers to enter a code from their bag of flour and find the organic family farmers who produced it. While the thrust of the NYT story was how even mass producers can behave as locals, it resonated with me as a former 4-H member whose grandparents farmed. Spending most weekends on the farm taught me the interconnectedness of all things. I didn’t have to lea… Continue

Deby White Jizi Article of Pasture Walk at Triple B Farms, Granville County, North Carolina

Pasture Walk at Triple B By Deby Jizi When I arrived at Triple B Farm in northern Granville County, there was a large turkey eyeballing his reflection in the bumper of a pick-up truck. He would look and then duck, thinking that he had just seen another turkey. I laughed to myself thinking, not the smartest animals on the planet are they? The reason for my visit to Triple B Farm, owned by long-time farmer, Bailey Newton, was to participate in a pasture walk. This one was sponsored by the Center… Continue

LeticiaTishMonkey Kalamazoo

I was in Kalamazoo Michigan last month and LOVED this restaurant!! Food Dance serves some local food, as well as cruelty-free eggs and meat raised sustainably. (Cruelty-free is our main requirement for our food in my family, and we use the term to mean no cruelty to animals, workers, or the environment. Of course, health, food quality, food safety, and our local economy are also important considerations). The restaurant is also a big supporter of the local… Continue
