i finished reading this book several weeks ago, and it was wonderful. it's barbara kingsolver's story about her family's adventure–eating locally for a year. the storytelling makes it a great read, and the message, about the broader impacts of our food choices and the power that we do have as individual eaters, rings true and vital.
it made me remember how lucky i am to live in a place like seattle, where there are 3 farmers markets a week close to my home, and local foods available at my local grocery store.
