Register NOW for February "Menu for the Future" Study Course (cost: $21)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Two groups will be meeting to discussion the "food revolution" that's happening in the farms, fields, and oceans and on the dinner tables of America, a revolution that's transforming the very nature of the food we eat. Come and see why, as Michael Pollan says In Defense of Food, "Most of what we're consuming today is not food."
Two choices:
- Thursday evenings 6:00-8:00pm starting February 19
- Sunday afternoons 1:00-3:00pm starting February 22 (NEW Start Date)

Winter Feast at The Black Duck
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 A sell-out crowd of 66 lucky people enjoyed a slow food feast at Chris Huber's Black Duck Restaurant in West Cape May. All of the food items were seasonal and purchased fresh at the farmers market in Philadelphia except for the fish course, which was caught offshore at Cape May the day before the dinner. See a slide show here, and read the full story here.
