JB MacKinnon and Alisa Smith, authors of the book, Plenty: Eating Locally on the 100-Mile Diet - Turning an Idea into a Movement When the average North American sits down to eat, each ingredient has typically travelled at least 1,500 miles—call it the SUV diet. On the first day of spring, 2005, Alisa Smith and James MacKinnon (bios) chose to confront this unsettling statistic with a simple experiment. For one year, they would buy or gather their food and drink from within 100 miles of their apartment in Vancouver, British Columbia. Since then, James and Alisa have gotten up-close-and-personal with issues ranging from the family-farm crisis to the environmental value of organic pears shipped across the globe. They ve reconsidered vegetarianism and sunk their hands into community gardening. They ve eaten a lot of potatoes. For more information about The 100 Mile Diet, please visit 100milediet.org.

Since the container gardening doesn t seem to have a high yield, and since our local organic market has expensive produce and the nearest real farmer s market is in the next town over, we ve opted to become subscribers in community supported agriculture (CSA), a relatively new business model for farms that should keep us in locally produced, seasonal, organic produce for months. CSA can be very cost-effective and convenient, but many people don t feel comfortable with the idea of cooking whatever it is the farm is growing. So, we ve brought along Ilona, our friend, local foodie, and fellow CSA subscriber. Rhett and Ilona go to town dissecting the first shipment from Redland Organics and discussing ways to make quick, simple, satisfying meals without bending over backwards. Interested in trying out CSA for yourself? Just check out Local Harvest to see if there s a farm near you! Show credits: The music in the montages is Earthen Fire and Dreams Away by Zen Debris.
