Foodshed
An Edible Alberta Alphabet
[Foodshed is] A rich encyclopedia of facts, farm-gate lore and original recipes… a politically engaging narrative in which Hobsbawn-Smith articulates the challenges and joys faced by small-scale producers… don’ t let the alphabet theme fool you. This is no tame nursery rhyme; it is a locavore call to arms.” ~ P. D. Robertson, The Globe and Mail
Foodshed puts a face on Alberta’s sustainable food scene with detailed profiles of 76 of Alberta’s leading growers and producers. It is an intimate (agri)cultural examination of the ground that farmers stand on—government involvement and land access, water and the environment, animal welfare and farm labour, and organizations that influence food, from Slow Food to the grassroots Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) movement.
