Third annual Eat Local Challenge for September!

Wednesday, August 22, 2007

Jackie and I have stepped up to the September Eat Local Challenge - will you?

More details have emerged about what committing to the challenge actually means.  The good news is that there really isn’t a concrete set of rules - you can participate in whatever way makes the most sense to you.  For the Farm to Philly challenge-within-a-challenge, though, let’s have our own set of guidelines!

1. Eat one meal per week during the month of September that is made using locally grown ingredients.  Non-local oil and spices are allowed.
2. Can, freeze, dry, or otherwise preserve two things during the month.
3. Utilize one new resource for locally grown food during September - that could be a new restaurant, farmer’s market, etc.
