Why did you join HVFN?

I started this network because I meet so many people while reporting around the Hudson Valley who care about food. I've also met a lot of people who would care about food, if they only they could taste what's good for them and understand the issues.

I'd like this network to be a place where people can share a passion, but also where people new to the local food movement can ask questions and learn more.

Interests

reading, Okinawan karate, goats

Local news: NY chef serves breast milk cheese, farmer worker housing help

I'm in awe of Chef Daniel Angerer pushing food boundaries by making culinary creations with his wife's breast milk. This just brings up so many questions, the big one from his customers being: What does it taste like?

Thanks for the welcome! I certainly remember chatting with you last summer!

We are having an event at the end of the month in Sullivan County - I posted it to my page and the details are up at purecatskills.com.

At 9:28am on February 10, 2010, Hook Mountain Growers said…: We were disappointed in the episode. We actually cooked (the vegetable portion) for Bourdain in Stony Point while someone else procured a local goat and slow roasted it right on the Hudson River and then had a great round table discussion about local food and farms in the area. Too bad it was more important to see Dakota Fanning's doppleganger rather than focus on the food and farms in the area.
