Dear Heterotrophs,
Please be advised that August is Farm to Restaurant Month in Alachua County. For details take a look at the attached PDF from Blue Ovens Kitchens. There is some compelling analysis there along with a listing of events.
Gainesville has a lot of great events, by BOKitchens, Citizens Co-op, UF Sustainability Office, and many others. The Farm to Restaurant initiative is more than a series of events - there is a lot cooking behind the scenes. You may have noticed how many local restaurants are now proudly offering food from local farms. And there have been a series of annual Farm to Restaurant workshops, and a certified BOK kitchen is in the works. Restaurants are an important component of an expanded local foods 'system', along with farmers markets, CSA's, farm to schools, etc.
You have to ask yourself - do you have what it takes to become a Beneficial Nematode? To answer that, see attached.
Please distribute this widely to those that might be interested.
