The White House launch of the USDA’s Know Your Farmer, Know Your Food Compass (KYF2) was a groundbreaking event, and a thrilling moment to be a part of. Data has always been a missing link in the food movement, and it is time for it to help us improve our food systems.
Our friends at Meatless Monday are at it again…getting some fantastic coverage in the news, that is. The movement is spreading throughout the country and even Oprah, Michael Pollan and Chef Kathy Freston are enthusiastically showing their support for Meatless Monday.
Cultivating the Web investigates the best and brightest ways that good food advocates are leveraging the internet to generate social change and further the sustainable food movement.
