"bio": "I am a writer, editor, mother of twins, and enthusiastic home cook. I was raised by an Italian-American mother who, in the 1970s, grew her own basil (because she couldn’t find any in the local grocery stores), zucchini (for those delicious flowers), and tomatoes (because the ones in the store tasted like “a potato”). My mom taught us to love all kinds of food and revere high-quality ingredients. I am now trying to follow in my mother’s footsteps and am on a mission to help my daughters become adventurous eaters who have a healthy respect for seasonal food raised locally. My daughters and I grow vegetables and go to the farmers’ market. We also love to shop at Piedmont Grocery and Trader Joe’s. When I’m not hanging out with my daughters or cooking, I like to contribute to cookbooks (including Williams-Sonoma’s Food Made Fast and Foods of the World series), work as an editor, and write about food for \u003cstrong>Bay Area Bites\u003c/strong> and \u003cstrong>Denise's Kitchen\u003c/strong>. My food inspirations are M.F.K Fisher, Julia Child, and Alice Waters — three fabulous women who encompass everything I love about food.",

She co-authored the award-winning guide, Kitchen Companion, and her work has appeared in numerous other books, including Asia in the San Francisco Bay Area: A Cultural Travel Guide and Cooking at Home with the Culinary Institute of America. Her writing has been featured in The Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, San Francisco Chronicle, Fine Cooking and Saveur. A recipient of a literary grant from the San Francisco Arts Commission, Thy is currently working on a collection of essays about how food changes in families across time and place.\r\n\r\nThough trained as a professional chef, she works on cookbooks by day, then creates literary chapbooks by night. An old letterpress and two cabinets of wood and lead type occupy a corner of her writing studio, for she is as committed to the art and craft of bookmaking as she is to the power of words themselves. In addition to writing, editing, teaching and printing, Thy remains active in local food justice and global food sovereignty movements.

Also, a barrel of cheese balls never ends well. \r\n\r\nStephanie has been known to choose her company based on how much they can pack it down. Ability to endure cramped quarters, sketchy back alleys, and uncharted paths to seek out that special dish is also a plus in her book. If you fit the criteria, drop a note.

Okay? I've put that out there, and it's my disclaimer for this post. I am acknowledging that what worked for you or me might not work for your sister or friend. However, we can take comfort in the fact that SOME things might work for many.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I now have three pregnant friends, who are all a gradation of weeks behind me in their pregnancies, so since I'm the one to run the gauntlet first, I'm the one who answers questions and gives out what advice I can. I like it. I like sharing what I've learned, especially if what I learned can provide even one hour of relief to the expectant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By nature, I'm a fairly nauseous person. That is, I'm easily nauseated -- cars, cabs, planes, naval gazing, \u003ci>American Idol\u003c/i> -- will all do it to me. I've been this way for awhile and so learned early on in life that Dramamine was my friend, my confident, my constant companion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I had feared that pregnancy might be much worse for me because of this disposition. (Remembering a ten-year-old \u003ci>New Yorker\u003c/i> article that talked about pregnant women who have uncontrollable nausea and vomiting to the point of hospitalization didn't help allay my worst fears.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Happily, I was wrong. Aside from those annoying people, who don't ever get any morning, noon, or night sickness, I don't think my nausea was any worse than what a lot of others experience in 1st trimester.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The most valuable thing I learned was that the nausea was a result of a blood sugar drop -- explaining why it's worse in the morning and therefore given the totally fallacious name of \"Morning Sickness\" -- so as long as I had enough food in me at all times, I'd be okay. In order to stave off what was for me 24-hour nausea, I had to eat every two hours.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My stomach was a clock. It would even wake me up in the middle of the night to warn me of waves of impending ickiness. I started keeping food next to my bed because, as the books warned, even the mere act of walking to the kitchen was a lot of effort for a body that was working hard to build a baby from scratch. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ignoring the resulting crumbs, crackers and almonds were my food of choice for middle-of-the-night noshing. Sometimes cookies for a valuable quick sugar kick.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Food\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Carr's Table Water Crackers:\u003c/b> Bland, bland, bland, but they will line your stomach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Almonds:\u003c/b> I still carry the Diamond resealable bags of these around with me in case of emergency. I learned early on that the rush of protein these nuts gave me was a sure-fire way to get ahead of the nausea.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Apples and Cheddar Cheese:\u003c/b> This was pretty much my lunch for seven weeks. Apples have always been a stomach-soother for me and the cheese was that needed protein. The cheese wasn't fancy -- as you might have expected from an old \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2006/02/16/pssst-wanna-buy-some-cheese/\">cheesemonger\u003c/a> -- it was just bulk, yellow, grocery store cheddar. Comfort food.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Grilled Cheese Sandwiches:\u003c/b> Ah, the ultimate in comfort food. Yes, I ate a lot of these in first trimester because I couldn't handle anything else. What is it about grilled cheese sandwiches and why are they so comforting for so many of us? Is it all rooted in childhood? With a lot of psychoanalysis, I'm sure we could get to the bottom of it some day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Totino's Frozen Pizza:\u003c/b> Again, maybe it's going back to childhood and what we all individually define as comfort food, but Totino's was something we always had at birthday parties when I was a kid. Totino's Cheese Pizza was my Thanksgiving turkey this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Drink\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gleaning facts from \u003ca href=\"http://www.restaurantwhore.com/\">friends\u003c/a> and books and the ever-opinionated Internet, I discovered that sour flavors were great for beating off nausea. I also knew from my long relationship with motion sickness that ginger was also a good curative. Plus, it's very important to stay hydrated throughout pregnancy, so get that liquid into yourself any way you can.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>San Pellegrino Limonata:\u003c/b> Not sweet or sugary, this \"lemonade\" has sparkling water to soothe the stomach riots and a nice bracing citrus edge to it. I love this stuff and drink it regularly now. With some bruised fresh mint, it makes an easy and refreshing mocktail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.fever-tree.com/\">\u003cb>Fever-Tree Ginger Ale:\u003c/b>\u003c/a> Yes, I love \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2007/05/17/fever-tree-revisited-ginger-ale/\">Fever-Tree\u003c/a> so much, it even cures my nausea. (Had the newest Fever-Tree flavor, Ginger Beer, been on the market, I would have stocked that in bulk. But that's for another review. It's a doozy of a drink!)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Sparkling Water:\u003c/b> The partner to my Carr's Water Crackers in all times of tummy trouble, sparkling water is stalwart and true. During weeks 6-13, I stuck with the flavorless variety even though I normally prefer lemon (and now \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2009/04/25/pink-grapefruit-perrier/\">PAMPLEMOUSSE!\u003c/a>) because the less flavor the better for me.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Miscellaneous\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These are a few things that I either carried with me in case of a nausea emergency or gulleted to give me a stomach boost when I knew my preferred food might not be immediately gettable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Ginger Chews:\u003c/b> \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2009/04/07/ginger-lovers-unite/\">Jen wrote about these\u003c/a> a few weeks ago. Before pregnancy, I was exclusively buying the Ginger People chews at Trader Joe's, but then Jen introduced me to the firmer Chimes chews, which don't go all soft and hygroscopic-y in their wrappers, and I was converted. I found my source of Chimes at Andronico's, but still eat Ginger People in a pinch.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Trader Joe's Triple Ginger Cookies\u003c/b> and \u003cb>Trader Joe's Vanilla JoeJoe's Cookies:\u003c/b> First of all, it's a ginger 3-way with the ginger cookies, so that's fantastic. Second of all, even if I weren't pregnant, I'd be craving these vanilla JoeJoe's. No, they aren't just like Oreos or other sandwich cookies out there. For god's sake, people, they have actual vanilla bean in the cream filling! Highly addictive and a perfect midnight snack.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.threelollies.com/\">\u003cb>Preggie Pops:\u003c/b>\u003c/a> Yes, it seems like a rip-off to buy very special pregnancy candies when you can just rely on lemon drops or Sour Patch Kids, but I was intrigued, so in the interest of research and in the interest of having a full arsenal to combat nausea, I ordered these. They come in sour fruit flavors (lemon, apple, raspberry, tangerine) and herbal (peppermint, ginger, lavender) and you can buy mixed or single flavors of some. My reaction? Not bad. I went through all the fruit first and picked my way around the herbals. They definitely quelled my rising gorge in times of car trouble, so it was money well spent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's not a long or balanced list by any means, but I wasn't being a Renaissance eater during weeks 6-13. You really don't care about the lack of dietary variety when you're just praying it will all stay down.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Good luck! Just remember: gag softly and carry a barf bag.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Or you might just walk down the street and grab one from any number of street vendors or eateries selling freshly made arepas around the clock. Fortunately for us up north, they're incredibly simple to make.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unlike many other flatbreads from Mexico, generally made from nixtamalized maize (an ancient, lime-based technology used to loosen the hard hull of corn kernels), arepas depend on untreated corn that has been precooked then ground finely. Head to your nearest Mexican or South American market and browse right next to the masa harina for the precooked corn meal ground especially for arepas. The most popular brand of masarepa or arepaharina, \u003ca href=\"http://www.latinmerchant.com/productdetail.asp?ProductID=F0012\">Harina P.A.N.\u003c/a>, comes in a bright, yellow package that's graced with a smiling woman in a polka-dotted head scarf. Don't even think about making this with regular cornmeal. Some recipes use masa harina, but purists will insist that you \u003ca href=\"http://members.tripod.com/~cocinavzla/pan.html\">track down the real deal\u003c/a>. Once you have the precooked cornmeal, all you need is a sprinkle of salt, some water and an oiled skillet or griddle. If you're feeling fancy, you can stir butter or olive oil into the dough. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/05/arepa_kneading.jpg\" alt=\"kneading arepas\" title=\"kneading arepas\" width=\"500\" height=\"332\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4018\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Arepa dough is super kid-friendly. The youngest ones will love its very moldable texture, so parents may want to make extra. For adults who like to play in the kitchen, consider arepas the first step to learning how to hand-pat thinner, more difficult corn tortillas. Keep a small bowl of water nearby; a small amount wiped on your palms will keep the dough from sticking as you roll and pat. Less dextrous cooks, young and old, can simply shape rounds against a flat surface rather than between two palms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some like to form hefty rounds and then later remove the interior to make space for savory fillings. I usually make mine thin and crispy, but fluffier versions are great for soaking up sauces. Many recipes for thick arepas, resembling English muffins or hamburger buns, now call for browning on both sides in a pan and then finishing in the oven, right on the rack, for 20 to 25 minutes until they're puffed and cooked through. Traditionally, though, they were cooked completely on a comal or griddle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/05/arepa_griddle.jpg\" alt=\"arepa on griddle\" title=\"arepa on griddle\" width=\"500\" height=\"332\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4019\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of my favorites ways to enjoy an arepa -- hot from my biggest, heaviest cast-iron pan -- is to fill it with a single, thin layer of nabulsi cheese, an early experiment with leftovers that became a surprisingly good pairing. Nabulsi, a brined, boiled cheese from the Mediterranean, has a dense, smooth texture and a lovely flavor derived from caraway or nigella seeds and ground cherry pits. Slipped into the still steaming arepa and left for a minute to melt gently, the cheese complements perfectly the tender corn of the bread. Roast chicken and guacamole make another excellent filling for an arepa. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If the night-time hunger pangs hit while you happen to be in New York, generally in the vicinity of Queens and specifically near the intersection of Roosevelt and 78th, then -- lucky you! -- you can stop by the \u003ca href=\"http://www.myspace.com/arepalady\">Arepa Lady's cart\u003c/a> to taste the essence of soul-satisfying street food: sweet arepas filled with soft, fresh cheese. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If, back here in San Francisco, you're strolling through the Mission District, swing by the 24th Street BART station and try one at Mr. Pollo.

Pink! Rhubarb and strawberries, shrimp Louie, cherries, \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=104493189\">pink boxers\u003c/a>, and yes, rosé.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stand up and be counted, pink wine drinkers! Personally, I love it when a date seconds my order of rosé. A person who embraces pink wine is a person who's not afraid to get a little girly. It means that person is \u003cem>hey, why not?\u003c/em> sort of person, happy to take a little vacation from the hopped-up IPAs and tannin-slugging Cabs to sip on what your aunt Cherrie would call a \"swimmin' pool wine.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I have fond associations with rosé--chaise lounges, love, the South of France--but I've found that rosé really cheers anyone up, if they're man (or woman) enough to drink it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, what's worth pouring this weekend as you lounge under the patio umbrella? My two faves remain \u003ca href=\"http://www.bonnydoonvineyard.com\">Bonny Doon's\u003c/a> \u003cstrong>Vin Gris de Cigare\u003c/strong> ($15) and \u003cstrong>Domaine Tempier's Bandol Rosé\u003c/strong> ($32). The Bandol 2008 vintage has just arrived at Kermit Lynch in Berkeley; get over there now before they \u003ca href=\"http://blog.kermitlynch.com/2009/05/22/2008-tempier-rose-its-here/\">drink it all up\u003c/a>. Both these wines are supple and elegant, perfect for a sunny summer lunch with cold salmon and a salad full of flowers. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over at \u003ca href=\"http://www.biritemarket.com\">Bi-Rite Market\u003c/a>, assistant wine buyer Sarah Bouldin puts the \u003cstrong>Robert Sinskey Vin Gris\u003c/strong> ($22.99) on the top of her list. \"We can only get 10 cases at a time, so it goes fast. It's really well balanced, with strawberry fruitiness, a little melon.\" And then there's the \u003cstrong>Unti Rosé\u003c/strong> ($18.99), a biodynamic wine from Mick Unti in Healdsburg. Says Bouldin, \"It's lighter than the Sinskey, a little more acidic.

This is important. It is most likely (and hoped for) that your server will not be staring at you as you rifle through your wallet.

As a waiter, this can be remarkably painful. I worry that I am embarrassing one of my guests-- especially one of my guests who happens to be leaving me a tip. Any server worth his salt will just treat it (outwardly) that it's no big deal and, rather than say, \"I'm sorry, your card's been declined,\" will say something to the effect of, \"Excuse me, do you have another card? This one doesn't seem to be working.\" Unless I'm handed one of those black titanium American Express cards. Then I always give a little frown and tell them it's declined. The response is invariably one of, \"Uh huh.

Remain calm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Fighting Over the Check\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of the most irritating things about waiting tables is guests fighting over the check. Suddenly, the food-and-alcohol-induced peace and harmony at the table is shattered by diners grabbing the checks and credit cards out of each others' hands in a seriously misguided effort to pay for the meal and be \"hospitable.\" Or they're just trying to play Alpha Dog. There is a certain ritual to this that must be followed:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of your dining parters grabs the check and insists on paying. You then say, \"Oh, no, I just \u003cem>couldn't\u003c/em> let you do that.\" Then they counter with something like, \"But I'd really like to treat you to dinner tonight. Really, it would make me \u003cem>very\u003c/em> happy to do it!\" You are then supposed to respond with something to the effect of, \"Well... alright, if it will make you happy, but\u003cem> I'm\u003c/em> taking \u003cem>you\u003c/em> out next time.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And then you're done.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Do not, I repeat, \u003cstrong>do not\u003c/strong> drag the server into this. At my tables, I have in most cases been spending the previous two hours making sure that everyone in my charge is as comfortable and happy as possible. I am not there to referee. Taking sides is not in my economic interest. If I am approached privately by a member of a dining party who hands me his or her card and insists on paying, I will: a) run the credit card and hand back at the end of the meal, run and ready so that he or she is one step ahead of arguments, or b) if the card-giver is not the clear-cut host, I will hand the card back uncharged. To the host.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In extreme cases, when different people start shoving cards or check presenters in my face (it happens) saying everything but \"Pick me! Pick me!\" I am polite, but firm. And mildly, chidingly sarcastic. I tell the contenders something akin to, \"Oh, you're all just so \u003cem>wonderful\u003c/em> to want to pay for dinner, I wish I could pick \u003cem>all\u003c/em> of you!\" I then take a step back from the table, saying, \"I can't \u003cem>wait\u003c/em> to see who wins!\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And then I walk away.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Remain calm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Fighting Over the Check\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of the most irritating things about waiting tables is guests fighting over the check. Suddenly, the food-and-alcohol-induced peace and harmony at the table is shattered by diners grabbing the checks and credit cards out of each others' hands in a seriously misguided effort to pay for the meal and be \"hospitable.\" Or they're just trying to play Alpha Dog. There is a certain ritual to this that must be followed:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of your dining parters grabs the check and insists on paying. You then say, \"Oh, no, I just \u003cem>couldn't\u003c/em> let you do that.\" Then they counter with something like, \"But I'd really like to treat you to dinner tonight. Really, it would make me \u003cem>very\u003c/em> happy to do it!\" You are then supposed to respond with something to the effect of, \"Well... alright, if it will make you happy, but\u003cem> I'm\u003c/em> taking \u003cem>you\u003c/em> out next time.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And then you're done.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Do not, I repeat, \u003cstrong>do not\u003c/strong> drag the server into this. At my tables, I have in most cases been spending the previous two hours making sure that everyone in my charge is as comfortable and happy as possible. I am not there to referee. Taking sides is not in my economic interest. If I am approached privately by a member of a dining party who hands me his or her card and insists on paying, I will: a) run the credit card and hand back at the end of the meal, run and ready so that he or she is one step ahead of arguments, or b) if the card-giver is not the clear-cut host, I will hand the card back uncharged. To the host.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In extreme cases, when different people start shoving cards or check presenters in my face (it happens) saying everything but \"Pick me! Pick me!\" I am polite, but firm. And mildly, chidingly sarcastic. I tell the contenders something akin to, \"Oh, you're all just so \u003cem>wonderful\u003c/em> to want to pay for dinner, I wish I could pick \u003cem>all\u003c/em> of you!\" I then take a step back from the table, saying, \"I can't \u003cem>wait\u003c/em> to see who wins!\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Whenever I buy a bushel, it seems there's always someone standing next to me asking what it is and how I'll cook it. They usually have a curious yet skeptical look on their face, as if to say \"that looks mildly interesting, but I'm sticking with the chard.\" If you only shop in a grocery store, you may never have even seen it for sale as it's mostly available at farmers' markets and Asian produce stores. But if you find yourself in one of those places, I highly recommend buying a batch.

In addition to it being highly nutritious (it's full of calcium and iron, not to mention Vitamins A and C), its flavors are more complex than other greens. It pairs beautifully with beans, pork and chicken and works well as a side dish or in pasta dishes and soups. It is also one of my favorite foods to serve with Italian sausage. And, if trying new flavors isn't enough, it's one of the cheapest vegetables you can buy.

Some people don't like rapini because it has a pungent smell, but if you don't overcook it, the smell seems more earthy and green, which I like.

The hot oven helps tenderize the stalks and crisps up the leaves, so there's no chance of ending up with limp greens. The dry heat also brings out a delicious innate sweetness and removes some of the plant's bitter element. Although many cooks like to blanch the rapini and then sauté it, if you're not careful this method can make the broccoli rabe soggy or droopy. If you don't want to turn on your oven, that's okay too: you can easily get similar results by firing up a hot pan, and sautéing the rapini in olive oil on a high flame with sea salt.

You start with dirt and seeds and water, of course. But just like good vegetables also need mulch and worms and pollinators and beneficial bugs to chase off the pests, a farmer learns not just through her own experience but through the hard-won experiences of other farmers, a whole long bloodline of observation through years of harvests and springtimes, of rain slicing down into mud and hot sun swelling the tomatoes sweet, of aphids clumping up inside the broccoli and leaf miners boring wiggle tracks across the chard. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's great if you come from a heritage of family farmers. But what if the closest you have to a back forty is a pot of basil on steps? Or what if your family's farm is corn and soybeans, and you want to grow organic lettuce? If you're young and hardy, you can rent yourself out as an unpaid intern or \u003ca href=\"http://www.wwoof.org\">WOOF\u003c/a>er, and hope you get to do more than just water and weed. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Or you can dig into a hands-on, intensive program like the one at the \u003ca href=\"http://casfs.ucsc.edu\">Center for Agroecology and Sustainable Food Systems\u003c/a> at UC Santa Cruz. For a six-month growing season, you'll live, learn, eat, sleep, and farm on a beautiful 30-acre spread of organic educational farmland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Graduates of this program, which has been running for over 40 years, are the farmers feeding you now. They're the ones building school gardens and working on food justice and sustainability issues all around California and beyond. For a program that graduates just 35 to 40 farmers a year, its impact on the organic movement has been both broad and deep. As a graduate myself, I've met countless farmers and food people over the past couple of years, only to find out that they, too, are former \"farmies.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And now it's time to help the farm grow its farmers. What the program needs is housing. After several decades of letting apprentices live rent-free in tents (and before that, teepees) while in the program, UCSC is now demanding that proper temporary housing be built on the farm. The result? Some $250,000 needs to be raised by mid-summer, or the program will have to go on hiatus next year. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hence, the campaign to \u003ca href=\"http://www.growafarmer.org\">Grow a Farmer Campaign\u003c/a>. Throughout May, participating restaurants and businesses around the Bay Area are donating 10% or more of their sales on a particular day to the campaign. If you're a chef or restauranteur, you can \u003ca href=\"http://www.growafarmer.org/restaurants.html\">sign up here\u003c/a>. If you're a happy eater, check out \u003ca href=\"http://www.growafarmer.org/events.html\"> the list of events\u003c/a> for this month. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because who will grow your food if you don't help grow your farmers? \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/05/ucscgarden500.jpg\" alt=\"stephanie rosenbaum in ucsc garden\" title=\"stephanie rosenbaum in ucsc garden\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3738\">\u003c/p>\n\n",

But just like good vegetables also need mulch and worms and pollinators and beneficial bugs to chase off the pests, a farmer learns not just through her own experience but through the hard-won experiences of other farmers, a whole long bloodline of observation through years of harvests and springtimes, of rain slicing down into mud and hot sun swelling the tomatoes sweet, of aphids clumping up inside the broccoli and leaf miners boring wiggle tracks across the chard. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's great if you come from a heritage of family farmers. But what if the closest you have to a back forty is a pot of basil on steps? Or what if your family's farm is corn and soybeans, and you want to grow organic lettuce? If you're young and hardy, you can rent yourself out as an unpaid intern or \u003ca href=\"http://www.wwoof.org\">WOOF\u003c/a>er, and hope you get to do more than just water and weed. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Or you can dig into a hands-on, intensive program like the one at the \u003ca href=\"http://casfs.ucsc.edu\">Center for Agroecology and Sustainable Food Systems\u003c/a> at UC Santa Cruz. For a six-month growing season, you'll live, learn, eat, sleep, and farm on a beautiful 30-acre spread of organic educational farmland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Graduates of this program, which has been running for over 40 years, are the farmers feeding you now. They're the ones building school gardens and working on food justice and sustainability issues all around California and beyond. For a program that graduates just 35 to 40 farmers a year, its impact on the organic movement has been both broad and deep. As a graduate myself, I've met countless farmers and food people over the past couple of years, only to find out that they, too, are former \"farmies.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

After several decades of letting apprentices live rent-free in tents (and before that, teepees) while in the program, UCSC is now demanding that proper temporary housing be built on the farm. The result? Some $250,000 needs to be raised by mid-summer, or the program will have to go on hiatus next year. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hence, the campaign to \u003ca href=\"http://www.growafarmer.org\">Grow a Farmer Campaign\u003c/a>.
