Despite feeling like I’ve read as many reviews of “Animal, Vegetable, Miracle” — Barbara Kingsolver’s best-selling new memoir of her family’s year spent growing most of their own food — as there are pages in the actual book, I am still enjoying it immensely.
Her account of stopping in at central Vermont’s Farmers Diner, whose slogan is “Think Locally, Act Neighborly,” reminded me of several events I’m looking forward to around here. Farmer’s Diner owner Tod Murphy believes that “if every restaurant got just ten percent of its food from local farmers, the infrastructure of corporate food would collapse.’
