old MacDonald had a farm, E-I-E-I-O
Farmers markets are changing. They used to be the place to find great fresh produce and unique varietals of mushrooms and herbs. I love the smell of fresh dirt on fresh food in the summer heat of my car with the windows rolled down. But things change. Evolution is as necessary as preservation is. It doesn’t mean that dirt on the veggies has no place, it simply means squeaky-clean hydroponic lettuce, artisinal soft drinks & ready-made gazpacho should be just as welcome. Views on preserving the natural within the evolving landscape are sought in this Call. Spend the time to research this theme…
