Arghh, for some reason I can't post this comment to the Gristmill, so I'll do it here and hope that you'll transfer it or address it on the post "Food and Class."
Slow Food has a rep for being elitist, a rep that Slow Food is trying very hard to improve in most places. I'm not rich, and I'll be the first to admit that Slow Food events are pricey, and membership is expensive. But, please remember that these are usually fundraising events for Slow Food programs such as Edible Schoolyards and the Ark. Slow Food does appeal to the richer folk and invites the gourmands among us to start thinking beyond just taste and about sustainability. Making local food "trendy" may sound shallow but you gotta admit that it certainly helps the local farmers and educates the public.
Love your blog, by the way. Thanks for writing about the issues so thoroughly and so well!
Hello Tom,
I have followed the issue of GM crops and corporate farming in general for the past few years, largely out of social/environmental justice concerns. Those largely revolved around the plight of subsistance farmers worldwide against the likes of Monsanto, the working conditions of fieldworkers here and the degradation inflicted by large scale farming.
Since 2004, I added the issue of energy as another reason why large scale agri-business makes no sense. The more I read about it and witnessed it (I used to be a natural resource planner for Tulare County in the Central Valley of CA) the more concerned I got about the issue of energy and food production.
Since I am not a farmer by profession, almost all of my cultivation experience comes courtesy of internet research. Reading your postings here helps give me a better perspective of small scale farming, from a personal perspective.
Thanks to the inevitable decline of energy supplies, our entire way of feeding ourselves will have to be drastically re-ordered. Those solutions we will settle on will most likely will not involve big Ag or genetic/technical innovations.

Hey Tom, found you through your good pieces on Grist... thanks for adding more information to all the reading I've done this year about these same agricultural issues. I'll keep checking back (and checking MaverickEats for good recipes)!
Looking forward for it. Thanks

The mantel looks great....I've been wanting to plank above our fireplace too, just not sure if or when that will ever happen! I'm waiting on our handyman to plank a wall in one of our guestrooms as it and the hall bathroom are getting a much needed makeover.
