Learning to Eat Locally with a Little Help From Friends

Tonight was Transition Whidbey's Potluck With a Purpose Eat Local Challenge kick-off.  We gathered together for a community potluck and shared out local dishes and our local sources.  I finally revealed our Local Food Resource List which included four pages of resources for produce, meat, seafood, poultry, dairy, eggs, grains and honey all available on our beautiful island or just beyond.  This list is the beginning of what I hope to become an extensive source of local food resources for the Northwest Washington region.  Many questions were asked tonight.  Finding the answers to these questions will be my goal as I search ever deeper for the source of our island nourishment. I would love for those Whidbey Islanders who read this to please respond with your sources or you questions regarding local food.  Comment below with your suggestions and help guide my research.  I am so excited to put this information together and truly enable and empower the people on Whidbey to eat as locally as possible.  Thank you!
