Declaration for Healthy Food and Agriculture:
(I posted on this yesterday but it's good news from this week, so here it is again)
What exactly are we for? Slow Food Nation had a bunch of experts put their heads together to hash it out. They have posted their Declaration for Healthy Food and Agriculture online this week.
Food For Thought: Today, Slow Food Nation brought together many of the leading voices about food in the country, including Marion Nestle, Timothy LaSalle, Michael Pollan, Winona LaDuke, and Eric Schlosser. You can expect to read more about these magnificent speakers and what they had to say on this site in the near future.
Oakland Goes Green: Often left in the shadow of nearby uber-green San Francisco, Oakland made the news this week. A Garden Grows in Oakland tells the story of Oakland's many urban farms and their roles in poverty-stricken parts of the city.
Even Wall Street Journal Takes an Interest This week, Wall Street Journal published an article called Eat Up, Kids, This Spud's for You about farm to school programs. How exciting!
