We know that healthy eating is an important part of green living. But what if we crave junk food? How can we eat healthy anyway?

I keep suggesting that one way to live the NH green lifestyle is to cook our own food, using whole, 'real' ingredients and a bit of sense. So here's a quick example: tonight's shepherd's pie.

I put some hamburger in the wok with onions, basil, salt, oregano and garlic.

My daughter washed and cut potatoes, and we put them on to boil. When the hamburger was cooked, I scooped it out and spread it in the bottom of a baking dish and layered a can of corn over that, after draining the corn into something else we were making. Then we sliced up some sharp cheddar cheese.

I just saw this notice:

Prescott Farm Environmental Education Center would like to announce the start of a small but enthusiastic White Oaks Farmer’s Market running Thursdays starting June 25 from 4pm-7pm throughout the summer.

Though it is in its first year, the White Oaks Farmer’s market has attracted eight energetic local vendors offering everything from freshly baked breads to organic heirloom vegetables and hand-made crafts.

This was forwarded to me by a fellow eat-local enthusiast. This is important and there's plenty of information here to allow all of us to make an impression!

From the NH Farm Bureau - please call your state representative and let them know we need a Department of Agriculture in NH!

Eating locally grown food is healthier, supports the local economy and is less expensive (due to eliminating transportation costs). Does anyone know of resources about local foods in New Hampshire? Thank you.

I have moved around a lot so I don't always know where to go to find information on farmers/producers of locally grown/produced food and/or restaurants that focus on local. Any suggests now that I am in NH?

edible White Mountains will premiere in June as a statewide publication dedicated solely to local foods and sustainable communities.
edible White Mountains will explore the farmers, food artisans and culinary wonders that make eating local food an everyday pleasure. Serving all ten counties within the state, the publication will follow our seasonal schedule. Four times each year full color photography featuring food and landscape will complement resourceful articles and recipes.
