lo·ca·vore noun /ˈlōkəˌvôr/- A person whose diet consists only or principally of locally grown or produced food
We have decided to undertake a locavore experiment from the beginning of May to the end of September!
But why would we undertake something so drastic?
Have we recently inherited a lot of money that allows us to become (even greater) food snobs?!

Will there soon be a zombie apocalypse in the rest of the US that only we know about and are preparing for?!
As much as I would love to spend my days in a yoga commune meditating on the meaning of life, sadly this is not the case. This experiment is an attempt to better understand the many options outside of the standard American diet (commonly known as SAD), understand where our food comes from and the social and environmental issues that accompany this food, and just learn to be grateful for the plants, creatures, planet, and people who make it possible that we not only survive but enjoy each day. As we go along I will be sharing things we learn about the sustainability of our food, the American food industry, recipes etc.
We'll see how well it goes; you all know how consistent I am as a blogger.
You make me laugh (your style of writing, that is). Good luck. I think that is a great idea.

ReplyDeleteI am so glad you are doing this! This is something that I would like to know more about and have you two do it will be very helpful in learning more about it. I am catching up but I will be following along the whole way. I am on day two of a juice fast and I can only imagine that the logistics of what your doing are equally strenuous. Good luck to you both!
