Bexley Farmers' Market: August 22nd

"One should eat to live, not live to eat."

Moliere


Farm-to-Fork. Seed-to-Plate. Farm-to-Table. It doesn't matter what you call it, there are all types of events, themes, and definitions for celebrating our agricultural diets and lifestyles.

Farm-to-table (or farm-to-fork) refers to the stages of the production of food: harvesting, storage, processing, packaging, sales, and consumption. Farm-to-table also refers to a movement concerned with producing food locally and delivering that food to local consumers. Linked to the local food movement, the movement is promoted by some in the agriculture, food service, and restaurant communities. It may also be associated with organic farming initiatives, sustainable agriculture, and community-supported agriculture.

So how do you celebrate local food?
