With the beginning of spring, I wished to begin a new series of blogs exploring the concept of eating locally. The inspiration came from many places: growing up on an organic-practices farm in Cornville, Maine, Rip Esselstyn's Engine 2 Diet books, the ABC show," My Diet is Better Than Yours", and The Wild Diet by Abel James (the Wild Diet was one of the most successful diets featured on "My Diet is Better Than Yours").
For these blogs, the challenge will be mostly sourcing foods that are local (within 50 miles of home), organic, or from the garden or property. As the gardens are in their infant-stage, other sources will have to be relied upon within that 20-mile radius, such as organic greens from local stores, produce from farm stands, and produce from past seasons (canned pumpkins, sun-died tomatoes).
Welcome, spring!!

I 'll enjoy reading this.
