A Localvore's Debut

There was a nice perspective piece in the Trib today from Robert Gardner, a localvore, who blogs at Vital Information.

Gardner talks about how his family has devoted themselves to eating local and seasonally to maximize their consumption of only the freshest produce from area farmers and growers.

He’s also turned his Oak Park attic and basement into food storage…squirreling away as much as possible to get his family through the dreary, cold winter months.

I’ll be checking back with Vital from time to time to see what local finds Gardner discovers.

Thanks to Urban Dweller for pointing me to the piece in the Trib.
