#today for #dinner we feast on crab gifted by a #nitnat cousin with salad made from local spinach, figs, carrots and tomatoes from our garden and basmati rice. Only the rice and butter were bought in a store!! #EatLocal so yummy! #VancouverIsland #CowichanValley

There is something poetic about being in the final stages of editing my thesis on the micropolitics of CSA as the first box of the season arrives! Scapes, salad, and significance simultaneously!

@Aaron Hadn't heard of TooGoodToGo! Good to know!

There are also (in #canada anyways):

- OLIO - food/ingredient sharing - swap your excess/about to expire stuff with others
- FlashFood - same thing as TooGoodToGo it seems;
- Food for All - similar idea, but for restaurants: stuff they want to get rid of before closing.
- Sauvegarde - same thing; Quebec/Montreal focus
- FoodHero - same thing; Quebce/Montreal focus

Anyone know any other anti-food-waste apps?

As Grocery Stores Get Bigger, Small Farms Get Squeezed Out

Will a Kroger-Albertson’s merger put more money in the pockets of retailers, making it even harder for small and mid-sized farms to access markets?

Ever since moving to NYS I miss panaderias (#MastodonPR sabe qlq) back home. Small bakeries that do baked goods like breads and sweets & they'd have an assortment of beverages and more than often serve breakfast, sandwiches and some of them lunch. Most of the time the people are incredibly nice, the food is delicious and warm, and it's all very cheap cause there's no frills.

Today I went to a local place and while it was most certainly NOT a panaderia it was that vibe.
