Follow up to Grain Food Workshop

Thanks to everyone who attended our first Earth Month event, "Grain Food: Building a Regional Staple Food System," and a special Thank You to our guest, Michelle Ajamian, for leading a really interesting discussion about growing staple food crops such as amaranth & black beans locally.

Here are some links we found later about work of the Appalachian Staple Foods Collaborative:

• Michelle & Brandon were recently featured in Utne Reader complete w/video interview
• Keep current with the activities of the Appalachian Staple Foods Collaborative on Facebook, including lots of photos
• Recent Athens Messenger story
• ASFC blog that includes info about the Shagbark Seed & Mill Co.  

Also, here is the website address for OEFFA (Ohio Ecological Food & Farm Association)
