Great Job Flo! We need to get this out to the folks who say that it is impossible to eat local in the winter and to those who don't understand why in the world you would want to do that!!

Great job Flo! I've been trying to do the same here in Vancouver, Canada. Its a real eye-opener to see how far our food comes from when we aren't watching. Its important for us to see the effects our choices cause (whether food or any other matter) and to appreciate that local sourcing is the harder path, but has its rewards.

Good to see you on the little big screen, Flo! I may have to steer the YERT tour over your way for some of that quiche. :-)
Posted by: YERT Mark | March 7, 2007 2:56 AM
Nicely done. Too bad that quiche is so unhealthy for you :-)
I think a lot of people would eat more local food if they knew where to get it. Asking for organic local produce at the grocery store certainly couldn't hurt. And if lots of people did it, the stores would probably seek out local organic sources for their produce.

flo, well done!
as a fellow vermonter, it is quite easy to eat local in this state thanks to all of the wonderful farmers and stores in the area. its a great place to be and great practice for the future. nice video!
have you seen the VT localvore website? im sure you have. http://www.eatlocalvt.org/

Real men don't eat quiche. I'll have an omelette with biscuits.
