Farm to Table Movement

We learned about the connection between farmers and chefs, and read an excerpt of the book The Third Plate by Dan Barber. We focused on soil health and how farming practices impact the land.

We continued by making sweet potato gnocchi.

We started by recapping last week and reading a couple of paragraphs from the Third Plate, and raise the relationship between farmers and chefs. We made stuffed squash, and use the Koginut squash instead of an acorn squash.

We then explored Row 7 and Ark of Taste according to these questions:

  1. What kind of organization in it, what do they do?

  2. Who leads the efforts (chefs, farmers or anyone else)

  3. what do you think is the organization's strength and does it have a weakness?

All About Apples: we watched a presentation with Eric Dawson from the Yellow Farmhouse Education Center, and leaned about apple history and farming.

We made apple cider donuts and sfinge.
