Comment on Local food @ the library! Wednesday, May 28th in Brentwood by Sara Zoe

NH Eat Local Week will be August 3-9, and so far we are short on details but the idea is to get a lot of people from all over NH eating local foods. INCLUDING, and maybe especially, some significant and public people, like civic leaders at all levels of government, journalists, bloggers ;), etc. We are definitely looking for people from all over the state to become official and unofficial sponsors of this, promoting it, owning it for their communities, etc. We can act simply as a broker house of publicity and information, but we hope it grows far beyond us.

We’ll be joining in the ‘national’ Eat Local Challenge in October, so those looking for a fun month can start planning ahead.

Comment on Protection from GMO Seeds by Nicole

I bet with the food prices in addition to people being more concious of these sort of things (GMOs) that we’ll see a resurgence in people growing their own food this summer.

Your readers can find free seed saving instructions here on the web site of this 20 year-old nonprofit’s web site:

Your are absolutely right. The way to protect our genetic heritage is for all of us to rejoin the seed saving ritual, the ritual one could argue, responsible for civilization itself.

Here’s a little bit more on that Maine bill, within a post from Food for Maine’s Future that talks about how the town of Montville, Maine voted to ban genetically engineered crops:
