More on Food...

Michelle MacFadyen - Saturday, May 15, 2010

Wednesday night we and Pack & Paddle co-hosted a screening of the movie FRESH. 

It was a great experience and we want to thank all of you that came out.  There was lots of inspired conversation about food and we wanted to give you a few resources in case you want to keep learning about where your food comes from, how it is produced, and what you can do to be a part of making what goes into your community’s mouths more healthy/local/flavorful!

Movies:
Food Inc.
Polycultures: Food Where We Live
Sustainable Table: Food to Plate
The Real Dirt on Farmer John
You can find an even more comprehensive list here.

Books:
In Defense of Food by Michael Pollan
The Omnivore's Dilemma by Michael Pollan
Animal, Vegetable, Miracle by Barbara Kingsolver
The man these authors quote the most is Wendell Berry.  His best compilation of essays is The Art of the Commonplace.

Television:
Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution
America’s Test Kitchen (If you want to learn how to cook from scratch these guys are the best!)

Local Farms:
Gotreaux Family Farms
Louisiana Wild Farms
Earthshare Gardens

If there's anything you think we're missing, please feel free to add it in the comments section!
