Year of Plenty

New Spokane Food Blogs - Spokarnivore and Ethical Eating

I came across two newish Spokane food blogs this week. I'm always eager to see new blogs popping up in the Spokane area, especially food related blogs. Make sure to stop by Spokarnivore and Ethical Eating and say hi. I'm especially intrigued by the Ethical Eating info blurb: "I am a single urbanite philosophy professor living in the Inland Northwest who has a passion for good food--food that tastes good and is ethically good." Philosophy and food; that's my kind of blog.



Year of Plenty

The Year of Plenty blog was created by Craig Goodwin in the winter of 2008 to chronicle the experiences of his family as they sought to consume everything local, used, homegrown or homemade. That journey was a wonderful introduction to people and movements in the Spokane area who are seeking the welfare of the community through local foods, farmers markets, community gardens, sustainable transportation, and more fulfilling and just patterns of consumption. In 2009 and beyond the blog will continue to report on these relationships and practices, all through the eyes of a family with young children. Craig manages the Millwood Farmers' Market, is a Master Food Preserver and Pastor at Millwood Presbyterian Church. Craig can be reached at goody2230@gmail.com
