Let things taste of what they are.

We have to bring children into a new relationship to food that connects them to culture and agriculture.

Change the food in the schools and we can influence how children think. Change the curriculum and teach them how to garden and how to cook and we can show that growing food and cooking and eating together give lasting richness, meaning, and beauty to our lives.

I want every child in America to eat a nutritious, delicious, sustainably sourced school lunch for free.

Cooking and shopping for food brings rhythm and meaning to our lives.

The things most worth wanting are not available everywhere all the time.

Cooking creates a sense of well-being for yourself and the people you love and brings beauty and meaning to everyday life. And all it requires is common sense – the common sense to eat seasonally, to know where your food comes from, to support and buy from local farmers and producers who are good stewards of our natural resources.
