Where to find locally grown food from Wisconsin farms and restaurants

This is so cool!

Four UW-Madison students have developed an interactive, online map to help promote and locate Wisconsin farms and restaurants that serve locally-gown food.

The average American meal travels 1,500 miles to reach your plate for consumption.

Get Uppity! Buy local! 

Update: The map is in beta stage and will get more usable in the coming weeks.

Another Good Reason To Visit The Cafe Carpe In Ft. Atkinson

Kitty Welch, co-owner of the wonderous Cafe Carpe, has helped put the City of Ft. Atkinson on the map again, this time with a model energy-saving community diet.

I'm always glad to plug my favorite small-town music club/restaurant/dessert Mother Lode, and the effective politics of the owners.

Done it before, glad to do it again.
