Earth Day 2009

We had 2 tables at Bucks County Community College in Newtown PA for Earth Day. We sold a bunch of soap and are donating profits to the Environmental Club. We spoke with a lot of students who were very interested in what we are doing. Erin Maher who runs the cafeteria treated us to Moroccan pork loin and lentils for lunch which was really good.

Afterwards we stopped over at nearby George School to get a tour of their garden from Joe Ducati who heads up their culinary department. His wife Kate takes care of the garden with student help, the kids are really into it and they have a nice garden. I met Joe last year when calling around to find oil sources and he connected me with Culinart which is the company he works for. They provide dining services for schools like BCCC and George School and also for corporate centers and are very committed to sustainability and local food sourcing. Joe and Kate are terrific folks and we're blessed to have met them.
