We are Seeds

Follow us as we live out our commitment to consume exclusively local food for one year. To keep you updated we will be posting a short entry on our progress every business day during that time. Share with us the ups and downs of relying entirely on seasonal produce, local meat and raw dairy. Along with our five weekly entries you can look forward to mini-articles on green-living, seasonal recipes, important resources, 'big ag' and Earth Warriors!

Our local food commitment begins on Earth Day, April twenty-second 2010. From that day until April twenty-second 2011 we will eat food that is grown within one-hundred miles of Lancaster City, PA. There will be exceptions like fair trade coffee and olive oil, which do not grow any where near here. As part of this commitment, all meat, eggs and dairy must be raised humanely.

What are we getting ourselves into? Find out by reading our posts and checking out our links. We have spent the past year researching our decision and preparing for a simpler, more fulfilling way of life.

This is our commitment to grow roots and make a difference for local agriculture.
