Omnivore - Eating well at the 7th annual Field of Greens
So, a farmer, a pig and a chef walk into a field...
The drizzle didn’t dampen the mood at the 7th annual Field of Greens. The setting was Whippoorwill Hollow Farm, outside Walnut Grove (AKA East Bumbleflip). Amidst the crowd of hundreds, you couldn’t toss a pig without hitting a farmer or a chef, or both in one fell swoop. Come to think of it, you probably couldn’t toss a farmer or a chef without hitting some pork, either. So, yes, there were lots of farmers, lots of chefs, and plenty of pork, but more than anything there was a familial embrace of local food, local agriculture, and plain old good times in the name of Slow Food.
