Maine Harvest for Hunger Recipes What comes in all shapes, colors and sizes, and can help prevent cancer, heart disease, and obesity? The answer is not some magic diet pill, but fruits and vegetables! We've compiled a collection of our own recipes to help you make nutritious meals and snacks…

Cooperative Extension: Harvest for Hunger
It's that time of year again - M&S are selling all sorts of squashes for £1 each. These will be roasted, mashed and in the freezer for dinners and soups over the next few months.

What a great market today! Lovely to see the traders doing well and the customers enjoying themselves! #cardiff #FarmersMarkets #EatSeasonally #farmtofork #CardiffFarmersMarket #sustainability #sustainablefood

These prices will take away from the distributors' bottom line, they will pass that loss on to their customers and then to consumers.

We need to #EatSeasonally and #EatLocal

Acknowledging that there's a lot of privilege behind this sentiment, almost everyone can make better choices on where you buy your food as well as what you buy. Plus you can lessen the enrichment of the billionaires that own some of those companies. #SupportLocalFarms #FarmersMarket #VoteWithYourWallet

Ooops! Did I just use #EatTheRich and #EatSeasonally in the same post? Hehe... 😉 😆 😆

The Killer #CEOs of #BigOil

Their fortunes are the result of poisoning you, me, our children and grandchildren, every other living thing on Earth, and destroying the temperature stability of our atmosphere. This week it's horrifying to look out and see the world they are creating for the rest of us.

"#PublicCitizen would like you to know that there are killers among us.

"They wear $2,000 suits and travel in #PrivateJets, unbothered by the TSA or the teeming masses. Their children attend the finest universities in the world, and they vacation on private islands and yachts. Many 'earn' more in a day than most Americans take home in a year; their positions ensure their heirs will never have to work a day in their lives.

"Their fortunes are the result of poisoning you, me, our children and grandchildren, every other living thing on Earth, and destroying the temperature stability of our atmosphere. This week they’re arguably responsible, in part, for billions of dollars in losses, numerous deaths, and thousands of shattered lives in Southern California."

Ravioli technique has improved! These are stuffed with roasted squash, ricotta, and thyme. So good! Served with a sausage and tomato sauce with fresh romano on top. Lots of pasta left over so rolled out some fettuccine too.

One of the best things about making pasta is the clamp that attaches the pasta maker to the table doesn't fit! So you must have help to crank, hold the pasta maker, and feed the pasta through! So much fun!

Over supper we had a cool little chat about where all the ingredients came from, what we could trace, what we couldn't, and how far each ingredient travelled. Sometimes taking your work home is delicious!
