Edible Austin picked for Austin Chronicle's Best Of Austin! |
Edible Austin is named
Best Artisan Resource
by the Austin Chronicle's
Best of Austin 2010 Critics Picks.
...we had no way of knowing how quickly and completely Edible Austin would become a reliable resource for the Austin artisan food community. Whether it's a BookPeople reception for a cookbook author or a benefit for the Sustainable Food Center, Urban Roots, or Gulf Coast renewal, Camp and Edible Austin will be there. Perhaps Camp's greatest accomplishment is Edible Austin's sponsorship of the annual Eat Local Week every December – several days of wildly popular events showcasing local farmers, ranchers, artisan food producers, foods, spirits, beers, coffees, and teas.

An Evening With Michael Pollan |
|
Presented by Texas Performing Arts in partnership with Book People and Edible Austin Eat Local Week 2010
We invite you to spend a fascinating evening with bestselling author, journalist, and food activist Michael Pollan. For the past twenty years Pollan has written about the places the human and natural worlds intersect, challenging the way Americans think about eating.
Central Texans are increasingly moving toward healthful, locally produced, and sustainable food options, and Pollan has been at the front of the movement. In books such as The Omnivore’s Dilemma and In Defense of Food, Pollan demonstrates how difficult it is to navigate today’s complex world of food production. The 2009 PBS two-hour documentary based on his book, The Botany of Desire, as well as his latest book, Food Rules: An Eater’s Manual, has prompted a generation to consider rules for eating to live healthier and happier lives.
“In the more than four decades that I have been reading and writing about the findings of nutritional science, I have come across nothing more intelligent, sensible and simple to follow than the 64 principles outlined in a slender, easy-to-digest new book called Food Rules: An Eater’s Manual, by Michael Pollan.” NEW YORK TIMES
