What are your sources of locally-grown food in this season of bounty? Farmers markets, your backyard garden, neighborhood buying clubs, the natural foods store or co-op? Then there are countless ways to prepare such fresh fruits and vegetables at home. Overwhelmed in the kitchen? Some fast food joints are even cooking up such local produce for you.

On Wednesday’s show we’ll hear from:

  • Ann Forsthoefel, director of the Portland Farmers Market, on how the new Sunday King market will help revitalize the neighborhood.
  • An interview with Portland chef and food writer Ivy Manning, author of the The Farm to Table Cookbook. (The first person to call (503) 231-8187 after the interview wins a copy of her book!
  • Burgerville's Chief Cultural Officer Jack Grey on the local chain's efforts to highlight more local foods on its menu.
