"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.",

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.

There's the everyday menu, an equally long, but more international, seasonally-inspired specials menu, and then the \"secret\" menu of the more hard-core, Old World items--flanken, kishkes, things made with schmaltz and braised in gravy.

If this were New York City, or Los Angeles, where deli culture, while battered, is still alive, one deli's decision to nix the salami would hardly generate SRO crowds at the 92nd St Y. But delis are few in the Bay Area, and so Saul's clientele takes any changes personally . But if there are Hebrew National fans and lox diehards out there, they're keeping quiet; the crowd claps and nods along with just about everything Pollan, Rosenthal, and Friend present, even recoiling a little in genteel horror at brightly colored slides of jaw-defying pastrami sandwiches teetering higher than Lady Gaga's heels. Those massive sandwiches, long the symbol of post-war abundance, a meaty slap in the face to immigrant privation, are no longer sustainable; as Peter points out, there's no way to provide that much meat, particularly if it's good, humanely raised meat, at a price regular customers can bear. \"Those huge sandwiches are killing the deli. You can't make money selling 12 oz of meat for $10 or $15. At a steakhouse, you'd pay $30 or $40 for that much meat, and you'd buy a bottle of wine.\" Instead, Karen and Peter want to offer their customers alternatives that taste good, with a little patient explanation to help it along. Already, the menu emphasizes smoked trout (farmed) over overfished salmon, and more and more Mediterranean inspired salads and vegetable dishes to go along with the potato pancakes and cheesecake. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pollan, for one, sees the democratization of the food movement as a very good thing. \"Getting sustainable food into delis, taquerias, cheaper places, that's great because it makes it more accessible to everyone.\" Agrees Friend, \"We vote with our dollars every day.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If the deli is our secular synagogue, as Pollan muses, clearly this one is reform, maybe even reconstructionist.

As I stood in my kitchen, I realized that I had never given much thought to Haiti. Period. I knew nothing of their music, or culture, or food. All that had ever come to mind prior to yesterday were thoughts of slavery, revolution, poverty, and natural disaster. Never in my life had I had a single, happy thought about the place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I wondered what the people of Haiti ate? There are few better ways of getting the feel of an unfamiliar place or culture than to eat their food. If I were Haitian, I'd want something nourishing and, above all, comforting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And that's where Labouyi Banann comes in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's porridge, essentially-- one made from ripe banana and unripe plantain. There are myriad ways to spell it, but only one way to eat it-- with a spoon. Make that two ways to eat it-- hot or cold. Either way, it's a good way to start the day. Or end it, for that matter. The following recipe makes six to eight servings, so I will be breakfasting on it every morning and, while I do, I will be reading and watching and praying for things to get better (can these people \u003cem>please\u003c/em> get a break once in a while?) in Haiti.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ingredients\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1 unripe (green) plantain\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1 large or two small, ripe yellow bananas\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2 cups water\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1 can (12 oz.) of evaporated milk\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1 can (12 oz.) of coconut milk (or 1 cup whole milk)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>½ teaspoon vanilla extract\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3 cinnamon sticks\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2 whole star anise\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A pinch of grated nutmeg\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A heavy pinch of salt\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>½ light or dark brown sugar (white sugar will work, too)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>½ teaspoon grated lime zest\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More dark brown sugar and lime zest for garnish\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Preparation:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1.

As I stood in my kitchen, I realized that I had never given much thought to Haiti. Period. I knew nothing of their music, or culture, or food.

Never in my life had I had a single, happy thought about the place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I wondered what the people of Haiti ate?

There are myriad ways to spell it, but only one way to eat it-- with a spoon. Make that two ways to eat it-- hot or cold. Either way, it's a good way to start the day. Or end it, for that matter. The following recipe makes six to eight servings, so I will be breakfasting on it every morning and, while I do, I will be reading and watching and praying for things to get better (can these people \u003cem>please\u003c/em> get a break once in a while?) in Haiti.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ingredients\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1 unripe (green) plantain\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1 large or two small, ripe yellow bananas\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2 cups water\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1 can (12 oz.) of evaporated milk\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1 can (12 oz.) of coconut milk (or 1 cup whole milk)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>½ teaspoon vanilla extract\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3 cinnamon sticks\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2 whole star anise\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A pinch of grated nutmeg\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A heavy pinch of salt\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>½ light or dark brown sugar (white sugar will work, too)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>½ teaspoon grated lime zest\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More dark brown sugar and lime zest for garnish\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Preparation:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1.

What's interesting to this arugula-eating liberal, however, is that this conversation has started on the conservative side of the table. After \u003ca href=\"http://www.whitehouse.gov/the_press_office/Remarks-by-the-President-to-a-Joint-Session-of-Congress-on-Health-Care/\">President Obama's speech on health care\u003c/a> last week, \u003ca href=\"http://boustany.house.gov/index.html\">Rep. Charles Boustany, R-La.\u003c/a>, a cardiovascular surgeon, gave the \u003ca href=\"http://edition.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/09/09/transcript.boustany.gop.response/index.html\">GOP response\u003c/a>. While supplying the nation with his rebuttal to President Obama's speech, he mentioned what I found to be a very interesting plea to include a sense of personal responsibility for one's health into the dialogue. According to Representative Boustany, \"... insurers should be able to offer incentives for wellness care and prevention. That's something particularly important to me. I operated on too many people who could have avoided surgery if they'd made simply -- simply made healthier choices earlier in life.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This portion of the speech really surprised me. At face value, it makes sense that people should take responsibility for their own health and for insurers to offer incentives for healthy behavior. Yet eating well is more complex than deciding to have grilled vegetables for dinner instead of a double cheeseburger, particularly for those who are poor and without time and resources.

What's interesting to this arugula-eating liberal, however, is that this conversation has started on the conservative side of the table. After \u003ca href=\"http://www.whitehouse.gov/the_press_office/Remarks-by-the-President-to-a-Joint-Session-of-Congress-on-Health-Care/\">President Obama's speech on health care\u003c/a> last week, \u003ca href=\"http://boustany.house.gov/index.html\">Rep. Charles Boustany, R-La.\u003c/a>, a cardiovascular surgeon, gave the \u003ca href=\"http://edition.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/09/09/transcript.boustany.gop.response/index.html\">GOP response\u003c/a>. While supplying the nation with his rebuttal to President Obama's speech, he mentioned what I found to be a very interesting plea to include a sense of personal responsibility for one's health into the dialogue. According to Representative Boustany, \"... insurers should be able to offer incentives for wellness care and prevention. That's something particularly important to me. I operated on too many people who could have avoided surgery if they'd made simply -- simply made healthier choices earlier in life.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This portion of the speech really surprised me. At face value, it makes sense that people should take responsibility for their own health and for insurers to offer incentives for healthy behavior. Yet eating well is more complex than deciding to have grilled vegetables for dinner instead of a double cheeseburger, particularly for those who are poor and without time and resources. It's no secret that unhealthy foods are simply cheaper and more prevalent than whole grains, fresh vegetables, and unprocessed meats. Think of McDonalds' popular dollar meals. Cheap meals are often the only food available for many Americans, and actual food choices are often nonexistent for people on constrained budgets.\u003cbr clear=\"all\">\u003cbr>\nInterestingly, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently released an obesity map of America.

With the words \u003ci>legitimate\u003c/i> and \u003ci>legal\u003c/i> defining benchmarks for entrepreneurs, street food rarely receives the kind of public awareness and support that other countries have long embedded into their daily rhythms. In some countries, nearly half of the food consumed comes from street vendors, and in Africa, Asia and Latin America, the street food sector employs from 6 to 25 percent of the urban work force, often involving entire families across generations. (See\u003cem> Street Foods: World Review of Nutrition and Dietetics\u003c/em>, ed. A.D. Simonpaulos, 2000.) \u003ca href=\"http://www.consumersinternational.org/\">Consumers International\u003c/a>, an independent organization working in 116 countries, has been researching and working closely with governments to support street food for over 30 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>India and Singapore may serve as useful examples for us. Their burgeoning street food scenes are both relatively young. Singapore was established in 1959, and within ten years, the government realized the need to regulate street food vendors without diluting the island's distinctive culinary culture. Any eater who has made the pilgrimage to Singapore knows well that hawker centres a.k.a. food centres, with their endless stretches of food stalls, are the very effective and delicious compromise. While a few taxi drivers and old-timers may still grumble about how chicken rice just doesn't taste the same in air-conditioning, no one would think of giving up their neighborhood food centre. Located in the first floors of apartment complexes as well as concentrated in specially zoned, multi-level, sprawling malls, food hawkers are truly a day-to-day part of life in Singapore.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/08/streetfood_hongkong1.jpg\" alt=\"street food hong kong\" title=\"street food hong kong\" width=\"500\" height=\"353\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6539\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In India, where maintaining the purity of food was inherent in cooking and eating and where strict adherence to caste distinctions limited eating food prepared by strangers, street food has only become popular in the past few decades. Since then, it has grown into such a huge, sprawling aspect of the urban landscape that its Supreme Court recently moved to \u003ca href=\"http://ibnlive.in.com/news/its-goodbye-to-delhi-street-food/40791-3.html\">ban\u003c/a> the preparation of food in public areas in New Delhi. Vendors will have to prepare their food at home and then sell them pre-packaged. (Caffeine, however, was specifically not criminalized: coffee and tea vendors enjoy a special dispensation.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As expected, there was an outcry from vendors all across India. More interestingly, Indians who depend on street food for inexpensive meals complained that they wouldn't be able to watch the food being cooked, thus would not be able to witness its freshness and cleanliness. In countries where immediate quality is much more important than gimmick or branding, enforcing safety with off-site facilities may well give way to the transparency of a sidewalk stove.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/08/streetfood_laos2.jpg\" alt=\"street food in laos\" title=\"street food in laos\" width=\"375\" height=\"500\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6541\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thailand's \u003ca href=\"http://www.fao.org/DOCREP/MEETING/004/AB523E.HTM\">\"Clean Food Good Taste\"\u003c/a> campaign, launched in 1989, is a program that values the needs of small street vendors as well as restaurants. Especially critical to its success, the plan includes a public education program and cooperation across several government agencies at municipal, regional and federal levels.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here in California, Sacramento has tried to \u003ca href=\"http://www.newsreview.com/sacramento/content?oid=946140\">rein in\u003c/a> taco trucks, while San Francisco this summer attempted to both \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?type=food&f=/c/a/2009/05/26/MN6317MLGI.DTL\">welcome and regulate food carts\u003c/a> in its city parks. Similar to New Delhi, the city adopted an ordinance requiring street food to be prepared in certified, off-site kitchens. With higher fees and the need for larger, more expensive carts, street food will more likely become an extension of well-established restaurants and more deeply capitalized entrepreneurs. While protecting our public health is certainly important, new laws need to be considered and discussed within the larger context of our city's culture and economic development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If we as eaters want creative, locally based and locally relevant street vendors integrated into our culinary landscape, then we as citizens need to push our legislators to build a system that supports--not weeds out--very small businesses. It's one thing to push a cart around Dolores Park on the weekends as a hobby during your salad days. It's much another to bring in a living wage and move your family up the ladder while providing food for others day in, day out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/08/streetfood_hanoi1.jpg\" alt=\"street food in hanoi\" title=\"street food in hanoi\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6540\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The whole issue of diversity was an obvious part of both street food festivals. We all like to think that San Francisco is one of the culinary capitals of the world. I'm counting down the years until San Jose or Santa Clara, Fremont or Fresno take over the reputation of truly international cuisine that they already deserve. Until then, I'd still like to see our city become more willing to support the full spectrum of culinary businesses. This means not only seeing unusual foods spelled out on the menu board. It means seeing a variety of people pushing the carts and pocketing the money.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/08/streetfood_thailand1.jpg\" alt=\"street food in thailand\" title=\"street food in thailand\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6537\">\u003c/p>\n\n",

With the words \u003ci>legitimate\u003c/i> and \u003ci>legal\u003c/i> defining benchmarks for entrepreneurs, street food rarely receives the kind of public awareness and support that other countries have long embedded into their daily rhythms. In some countries, nearly half of the food consumed comes from street vendors, and in Africa, Asia and Latin America, the street food sector employs from 6 to 25 percent of the urban work force, often involving entire families across generations. (See\u003cem> Street Foods: World Review of Nutrition and Dietetics\u003c/em>, ed. A.D. Simonpaulos, 2000.) \u003ca href=\"http://www.consumersinternational.org/\">Consumers International\u003c/a>, an independent organization working in 116 countries, has been researching and working closely with governments to support street food for over 30 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>India and Singapore may serve as useful examples for us. Their burgeoning street food scenes are both relatively young. Singapore was established in 1959, and within ten years, the government realized the need to regulate street food vendors without diluting the island's distinctive culinary culture. Any eater who has made the pilgrimage to Singapore knows well that hawker centres a.k.a. food centres, with their endless stretches of food stalls, are the very effective and delicious compromise. While a few taxi drivers and old-timers may still grumble about how chicken rice just doesn't taste the same in air-conditioning, no one would think of giving up their neighborhood food centre. Located in the first floors of apartment complexes as well as concentrated in specially zoned, multi-level, sprawling malls, food hawkers are truly a day-to-day part of life in Singapore.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/08/streetfood_hongkong1.jpg\" alt=\"street food hong kong\" title=\"street food hong kong\" width=\"500\" height=\"353\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6539\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In India, where maintaining the purity of food was inherent in cooking and eating and where strict adherence to caste distinctions limited eating food prepared by strangers, street food has only become popular in the past few decades. Since then, it has grown into such a huge, sprawling aspect of the urban landscape that its Supreme Court recently moved to \u003ca href=\"http://ibnlive.in.com/news/its-goodbye-to-delhi-street-food/40791-3.html\">ban\u003c/a> the preparation of food in public areas in New Delhi. Vendors will have to prepare their food at home and then sell them pre-packaged. (Caffeine, however, was specifically not criminalized: coffee and tea vendors enjoy a special dispensation.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As expected, there was an outcry from vendors all across India. More interestingly, Indians who depend on street food for inexpensive meals complained that they wouldn't be able to watch the food being cooked, thus would not be able to witness its freshness and cleanliness. In countries where immediate quality is much more important than gimmick or branding, enforcing safety with off-site facilities may well give way to the transparency of a sidewalk stove.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/08/streetfood_laos2.jpg\" alt=\"street food in laos\" title=\"street food in laos\" width=\"375\" height=\"500\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6541\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thailand's \u003ca href=\"http://www.fao.org/DOCREP/MEETING/004/AB523E.HTM\">\"Clean Food Good Taste\"\u003c/a> campaign, launched in 1989, is a program that values the needs of small street vendors as well as restaurants. Especially critical to its success, the plan includes a public education program and cooperation across several government agencies at municipal, regional and federal levels.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here in California, Sacramento has tried to \u003ca href=\"http://www.newsreview.com/sacramento/content?oid=946140\">rein in\u003c/a> taco trucks, while San Francisco this summer attempted to both \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?type=food&f=/c/a/2009/05/26/MN6317MLGI.DTL\">welcome and regulate food carts\u003c/a> in its city parks. Similar to New Delhi, the city adopted an ordinance requiring street food to be prepared in certified, off-site kitchens. With higher fees and the need for larger, more expensive carts, street food will more likely become an extension of well-established restaurants and more deeply capitalized entrepreneurs. While protecting our public health is certainly important, new laws need to be considered and discussed within the larger context of our city's culture and economic development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If we as eaters want creative, locally based and locally relevant street vendors integrated into our culinary landscape, then we as citizens need to push our legislators to build a system that supports--not weeds out--very small businesses. It's one thing to push a cart around Dolores Park on the weekends as a hobby during your salad days. It's much another to bring in a living wage and move your family up the ladder while providing food for others day in, day out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/08/streetfood_hanoi1.jpg\" alt=\"street food in hanoi\" title=\"street food in hanoi\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6540\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The whole issue of diversity was an obvious part of both street food festivals. We all like to think that San Francisco is one of the culinary capitals of the world. I'm counting down the years until San Jose or Santa Clara, Fremont or Fresno take over the reputation of truly international cuisine that they already deserve. Until then, I'd still like to see our city become more willing to support the full spectrum of culinary businesses. This means not only seeing unusual foods spelled out on the menu board. It means seeing a variety of people pushing the carts and pocketing the money.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/08/streetfood_thailand1.jpg\" alt=\"street food in thailand\" title=\"street food in thailand\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6537\">\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Opening in San Francisco on June 12, this latest release by Magnolia Pictures tackles the unenviable job of educating consumers about the agricultural industry. It's being called the Inconvenient Truth of the food world, and the quality of its production certainly compares well.

Of course, that's a challenge when corporations refuse to take part in the conversation. (Monsanto, Tyson and many others declined to appear in the film.) The film offers a surprisingly evenhanded treatment of Walmart executives accompanied by Gary Hirshberg, CEO of Stonyfield Farm. Even more, rock stars of the sustainable food world, such as self-proclaimed grass farmer, Joel Salatin, inadvertently reveal the gray areas of their own much praised business models.

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>.

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>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Something more than a little dirty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It had been a while since I've weeded, hoed, or lugged 4 cubic yards of soil, but I was game for it. I just wasn't sure what I was going to wear.

It's a Community Supported Agriculture organization with heavy emphasis on community. In fact, every herb and vegetable grown comes directly from community members' backyards. Want to know where your mustard greens are really coming from? Well then, go ask your neighbor.

With lots of farmhands, well, on hand, the work was swift and enjoyable. I was especially grateful for our numbers when it came time to move the small mountain of soil from a gigantic pile dumped in the driveway to the garden awaiting it in the back-- through the garage, one bucket at a time. At times I pretended I as though I were an ant-- a cog in a great earth-moving machine, but without the ability to lift 25 times my own body weight or smell things through antennae. Of course, in the unseasonable warm April weather, it sometimes felt as though a large bully were holding a magnifying glass over me, trying to set me on fire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The next time you see me, please feel free to compliment me on my newly-found shoulder muscles and red, red neck.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was rather stunned by how smoothly everything went.

I was certain the water was placed in a blender because it was made of non-breakable materials, but I couldn't look at it without thinking that whenever I took a sip, I was drinking a water smoothie.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was a great day spent outside.

With lots of farmhands, well, on hand, the work was swift and enjoyable. I was especially grateful for our numbers when it came time to move the small mountain of soil from a gigantic pile dumped in the driveway to the garden awaiting it in the back-- through the garage, one bucket at a time. At times I pretended I as though I were an ant-- a cog in a great earth-moving machine, but without the ability to lift 25 times my own body weight or smell things through antennae. Of course, in the unseasonable warm April weather, it sometimes felt as though a large bully were holding a magnifying glass over me, trying to set me on fire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The next time you see me, please feel free to compliment me on my newly-found shoulder muscles and red, red neck.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was rather stunned by how smoothly everything went. From start to finish, the garden was weeded, top-soiled, dug, irrigated, and planted in less than five hours.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/04/phpxzz4abam2.jpg\" alt=\"sundial\" width=\"233\" height=\"350\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3100\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We were a well organized, well-oiled, and well-hydrated team-- the couple hosting the garden kept a blender of filtered water filled for us at all times. I was certain the water was placed in a blender because it was made of non-breakable materials, but I couldn't look at it without thinking that whenever I took a sip, I was drinking a water smoothie.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was a great day spent outside. I highly recommend it to anyone with a strong back and a good attitude.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/04/phpye9m5eam.jpg\" alt=\"kohlrabi\" width=\"233\" height=\"350\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3101\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And I don't care that someone can't spell Kohlrabi, I'm just glad someone is actually planting it. In an effort to add my own special skills to the endeavor, my pleas for matching font styles on the planting tags went unheeded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Until the next time, that is.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>How MyFarm Works:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/04/farmhowitworks.jpg\" alt=\"How It Works\" width=\"500\" height=\"139\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3132\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>MyFarm's Vision\u003c/strong> (\u003ca href=\"http://www.myfarmsf.com/about-vision.html\">from the website\u003c/a>):\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At MyFarm it is our mission to make growing food and growing community one in the same.
