Everyone has been talking about local food lately: The health benefits;
the ecological benefits, the community benefits. And this month at
LiveGreenTwinCities.com we’re going to show you easy ways to eat local,
healthy, and delicious foods every day.
We’ll show you how to grow vegetables in your own garden; how to create easy and delicious recipes using locally grown ingredients; and how to shop for affordable and healthy locally grown veggies, fruits, meats, cheeses, and more.
We'll introduce you to great local stores and shops that sell healthy and organic local food; local chefs focusing on sustainable practices; and local farmers producing healthy and organic produce, meats, and more.
We’re also happy to introduce guest blogger Lee Zukor from the fabulous local food site
SimpleGoodandTasty.com. He’ll talk to local chefs who serve up great meals using local ingredients; show you where to go for local meals; offer up great local recipes; and take you behind the scenes at the Mill City Farmer’s market.
We like to think of Zukor as a local foods evangelist. And we couldn't be happier to have him help us uncover all of the great things--from farm to table, from seed to sprouting movement--growing in our backyards.
