What is Bethesda Locavore? Really, Who Has the Time? By Bethesda Locavore, on March 9th, 2012. This local eating thing does take some extra time, doesn’t it? Eating food produced by local small-scale farmers is a pretty big priority for me. I know I’m not the only one who feels the time crunch – if you, too, have been thinking you’d like to eat locally but are pressed for time, here are a few options I’ve uncovered:. Both offer a delivery service with online ordering. (Think Peapod. Which may possibly be...

What is Bethesda Locavore? On No Impact Man and Reusable Produce Bags. By Bethesda Locavore, on May 2nd, 2011. Have you heard of the film No Impact Man. It’s a documentary about a guy, living in New York City with his wife and toddler, who decides to spend a year attempting to have no negative impact on the planet. To see if it’s possible. To see what it would be like. And to see what he’d learn. Seriously, you must. Turns out, he also wrote a book, also called No Impact Man. Without generating any trash.

What is Bethesda Locavore? Roast Chicken With Root Vegetables. By Bethesda Locavore, on April 17th, 2011. So what the heck does a locavore eat in April? Um, go ask someone else. Ever since my toddler gave up that morning nap – that. My only alone time. 8211; well, I haven’t had a whole lot of time to devote to unraveling the mysteries of the jerusalem artichoke. I am Mommy first, Locavore-in-Training second. That said, there. Been a lot of chicken-roasting going on around here. I thought. Something.

What is Bethesda Locavore? Confessions From a Semi-Green Life. By Bethesda Locavore, on December 2nd, 2012. I have a confession to make. I am not all that green. Oh, I think about being green all the time, but usually when I’m busy not being green. I fantasize about a Prius V - in fact, I cheerfully greet each Prius V that I pass with a chirpy “hellooo, Prius V! 8221; as though we will soon be together … but I’m still in the minivan. A lot. I love to shop. I’ll be honest – there is a part of ...I donR...

What is Bethesda Locavore? Who’s Your Farmer? A Visit to Polyface. By Bethesda Locavore, on July 14th, 2011. Do you know where your food comes from? Our family took a trip to Virginia this past weekend for the Polyface Farm Field Day. When Joel Salatin speaks, people listen. People are so willing to listen, they book hotel rooms and spend a very hot day following him through poopy pastures. That’s right - poopy pastures. (We were. Not prepared for that. There’s a reason farmers wear boots.). The grass ca...

What is Bethesda Locavore? By Bethesda Locavore, on September 13th, 2011. And that’s got me thinking about the beach. We spent a week in Rehoboth earlier this summer. We rented a house with some friends just a few blocks from the beach, the shops, the restaurants, and, of course, Funland. (Ah, Funland. My boy is still talking about Funland on a daily basis. It may have been the highlight of his little life. But I digress. Back to our beach week.). Moving on your own power is just soooo much more fun.
