About

How we eat determines, to a considerable extent, how the world is used.
Wendell Berry, What are People For?

We are local residents who began sharing a monthly potluck of locally-grown foods in 2005 as we support each other and the community in building more sustainable foodways. Our structure is informal; we have no board or budget. Our conversations are inspired by the conviction of farmer and author Wendell Berry that "how we eat determines, to a considerable extent, how the world is used." (What are People For?)

We have a monthly column in the Three Rivers Commercial-News (look for the "Our Food Matters" column one Monday a month).

We produce a Local Foods Guide (look for it at Love Your Mother, MSU Extension, or World Fare, and the Farmer's Market).
