This short interview takes the elitism out of locally sourced fine dining in a place that you would never expect it…. Read the full story on TreeHugger

Image from Grand Rapids Press Some big companies with land to spare are providing vegetable patches for their employees to work on during their breaks and during lunch. It’s a nice perk, though a raise might be nicer, and it certainly is good for morale. In California Google and Yahoo have had organic gardens for a while.
