Sustainable Eats in Lawrence

Somehow through all the information overload, the messages about food are beginning to cut through the ether. You hear about spinach tainted with E. coli, or meat packing plant shutdowns. You hear a word....sustainable. But what is sustainability in food about, exactly? Is it organics versus pesticides? Local food as opposed to the goods shipped hundreds of miles? In this podcast you'll hear a variety of perspectives about growing and selling food sustainably in Lawrence. In the process, you'll meet area growers, a grocery store dedicated to supporting local agriculture and a chef focused on making the most of seasonal food from area farmers. -jenh
