    • ]]>     Kamrin and I are heading over to the Enzian next Sunday for the Farm to Table event.  Besides catching up with our locally focused friends, we are both excited to see the showing of the film Food Fight.  Oh yeah we’re also pretty stoked about eating the tasty locally sourced food prepared by Chef Josh Oakley and washing it down with organically brewed beer from Orlando Brewing.

    This is the first time since the birth of our little girl that we’ll have the opportunity to reconnect with the Orlando’s locavore community and get caught up with what is happening with the local food movement.  Speaking of which, Julie did a great show on the topic this week on Front Porch Radio and it was a great primer for me to get my head wrapped around who the players are and what progress has happened since my 2007 Locavore film.  Take a listen to her show here.

    Ourlando is the chief organizer of the event and the goal is to raise awareness about our existing local food sources and encourage the locavore lifestyle.  With a little networking and some passion we can build a wonderful local and sustainable food economy.  This will be a great opportunity to meet local farmers and local food purveyors.  I’m sure the talk around Eden bar after the film will be worth the price of admission.

    Hope to see you all there.
