Our next Real Food Challenge Meeting will be this Wednesday, April 15, 5-6 p.m. in 401 Denny. Please come and help us plan for our farm trip later this quarter.
More news:
We had discussed last quarter about the possibility of planning a farm visit in preparation for our meal event for spring quarter. I have written Ariana Taylor-Stanley to see if we might visit her at the farm where she is interning on Bainbridge Island. The other possibility is to follow up on Mark Madsen's invitation to visit him on Lopez Island.
Emilia Ptak, who is a UW student, has contacted me about the possibility of setting up an affiliation with Slow Food on Campus. She has been in touch with the Seattle Chapter of Slow Food and she would like an opportunity to present to our group what this might entail in terms of organization and what resources we might draw on. We might also want to discuss whether we want to form an ASUW registered student organization, which would enable us to draw on ASUW resources to support our activities.
Plans are getting underway with the video blog project. Theresa Klaassen and Chris Brown are collaborating on a first installment of an online cooking school and we may have located a kitchen that would be good for videotaping.
Finally, Lucy Jarosz and I are still trying to figure out how to get the word out about our study abroad program for Fall Quarter (The Culture and Politics of Food in Italy). If you know of any students that might be interested, please help us spread the word!!
