Sustainable Table and The Meatrix are taking a Thanksgiving break! We will be back on the 30th, and can’t wait to hear about all of the sustainable shopping, cooking, and eating that happened. Have a wonderful holiday! ...
Sustainable Table We want to thank you all for commenting on our FB page, we appreciate your passion! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving, we know we are a bit early, but we are taking next week off to enjoy ourselves. Cooking up a sustainable Thanksgiving dinner takes time and planning - lots of trips to the farmers market. Enjoy the bounty ...of the season... winter is quickly arriving! Many thanks to the farmers who make it possible for us to have sustainable food. And don't forget those who don't have access, please find a food panty and see what you can do to help them now and through out the year.

I’m embarrassed to admit it, but I just saw Food Inc. for the first time this weekend. It was informative and captivating, I happily stayed awake through the whole movie! And it’s rentable and NetFlixable too – if you haven’t seen it, rent it and share it with friends and family. It’s a...

As a child I had strep throat on a regular basis. The doctor would diagnose me by putting a giant Q-tip into the back of my throat to check for bacteria. I was given penicillin, amoxicillin, and tetracycline – at least those are the names of the antibiotics that I remember. ...
