Create a “Food Street” with Food Up Front
Mark Stewart and Kassie Miedema join us to tell us about a grassroots program encouraging people to grow food in front yards. The idea is to produce more food locally—and to connect people around food.Participants in the program can also put up a sign in the garden to raise awareness of the idea—and to stir up conversation.What does success look like? A food street, with many neighbours growing up front.Food Up Front is an initiative of Transition Toronto, a chapter of a global movement for change.
Want sneak peaks? Some neat recipes? I'm collaborating with Chef Signe Langford on a delicious book: Olives, Lemons & Figs. Find out how to use olives, lemons, and figs from fruit to root to shoot, including fig-wood smoked fare, fizzy lemon-leaf apéritifs, and lots more. Click here so you don't miss our updates.
