For all it’s simplicity and necessity, our relationship to our food is a complex mix of cultural, political, and economical issues. Slow, fast, local or industrial, food is inextricably at the center of our lives. A
growing global movement is bringing a greater consciousness to the connections between what and how we eat and the health of the earth, not to mention ourselves.

As the world topples headlong in the rush toward towards technological progress and industrialized harvests, the traditions of small farmers, locally grown food, and meals crafted with attention and joy will become more and more important.

From feasts of still slightly hairy goat meat, freshly sacrificed for a spring harvest festival in the Himalayas, to dark nettle greens harvested in the forest, or the spicy chile grown on the banks of the Rio Grande, may we celebrate and honor the people, the world over, whose lives are devoted to the growing and harvesting of food, the building of soil, and the artistry of cooking.
