Brian Halweil, Editor of Edible East End and Publisher of Edible Manhattan and Edible Brooklyn, speaks at the James Beard Foundation Food Conference on October 12, 2011. Brian talks about the impact of Edible Magazines in communities around the country.
Back in January, we launched our inaugural Edible Institute a gathering of influential writers, thinkers, and eaters from around the country. Held at the Bishops Lodge in Santa Fe, NM, we were treated to a foot of fresh falling snow, and many inspiring conversations. Here's a quick video clip from the event, produced by Rachel Hodson and David Vogel of Edible Wasatch.
In the upcoming months, select Edible Communities magazines will feature an exclusive excerpt from Anna Lappe's inspiring new book, Diet for a Hot Planet.
Here's Anna with a video introduction to her book:
"As Anna Lappé reveals in this important book, we must be conscious of what we eat - not only for our own health, but for the health of the planet. When it comes to climate change, junk food may prove even more destructive than S.U.V.s. Lappé's message is timely and empowering."
