A culinary online center dedicated to promoting the importance and the joy of American home cooking with an emphasis on local products and talent, celebrating the unique spirit and energy of the new food world ethos, especially in Vermont.

We can dramatically increase global food availability and environmental sustainability by using more of our crops to feed people directly and less to fatten livestock.
—Jonathan A. Foley, director of the Institute on the Environment, U of MN

Don’t eat anything your great-grandmother wouldn’t recognize as food.
—Michael Pollan

Cooking is at once child’s play and adult joy. And cooking done with care is an act of love.
—Craig Claiborne

People who eat according to the rules of a traditional food culture are generally healthier than those of us eating a modern Western diet of processed food.
—Michael Pollan

Last week, the International Association of Culinary Professionals chose my blog as one of three to promote via their blog roll. This may not seem like the biggest deal in the world but for a grassroots blog like mine to be chosen by an international organization representing over 3,000 members of a broad segment of the food world, it was a nice tribute. They noted my latest posts on successful farm to school programs as a reason my blog was chosen. That really made me happy!
One of 3 blogs featured, here's what the International Association of Professionals had to say on their feature "Blog Roll of the Dice" :
Bronwyn Jones Dunne, author, food writer and blogger at In the Kitchen with Bronwyn, has a wonderful on-going series about farm to school initiatives taking place in Vermont and Connecticut. If you’re interested in the process of connecting education with farming and the land, then her posts are a must read. See the tribute. 
The two Farm-to-School posts that were recognized are:
Farm to School – Not Just a Slogan published on Oct 5, 2013
Fairfield Farm at The Hotchkiss School: Where Academics & Agriculture Meet , published on Oct 18, 2013
Stay tuned for a third farm-to-school post in mid-November.

   Thank you, Jen. I think it’s the subject. Farm to School is a wonderful concept and when I see the effect on students -their enthusiasm and interest- I think we could save the world with small farms!

   That’s fabulous Bronwyn! Maybe you’d be interested in the programs at Green Mountain College in Poultney. A young man I know went there and then went on to intern on farms in Europe last summer after graduation. He interned on some VT farms during the program. Don’t know what’s next in his life, but I know it sure wasn’t part of the curriculum when I was in college. Another son of one of our friends has become a butcher, working in New Haven. There seems to be SO much going on in the 20 something generation!

   So great, Bron. I remember returning on a plane with you from Paris almost exactly two years ago and you were deep in concentration…designing the logos etc for this Blog! You have accomplished so much in a short time.

   Oh my goodness! It seems as though that was almost another lifetime! If I compare notes, I have to mention your great new photograph exhibition opening at the end of the month in Antiqua. Remember how we toured Paris Photo? I think that trip was full of inspiration….
