Farmer Mai works for climate and social justice through farming\, actions and advocacy. She is part of a global movement of agroecological farming\, which integrates the science of sustainable agriculture with social justice. These farming practices encompass what the US considers organic or regenerative\, while also embracing traditional\, place-based knowledge that is healthful for ecosystems and those who live in them. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Seeds remember. Growing heirloom seeds saved from the same soil and climate\, even as we face climate change’s extreme droughts and floods\, means that the seeds remember how to adapt. Seeds also carry our stories–where we came from and what nourished our ancestors. The heirloom grains I grow come from many parts of the world by the hands of people immigrating or escaping. These seeds connect them to a place and people as they make a new home here. The diversity of seed reflects the diversity of our society.” Farmer Mai Nguyen \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe extend a special invitation to our newer members–come meet other members and get involved in your chapter’s activities! If your membership has expired\, attend and renew it. Not a member? Come and see what we’re all about! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nP.O. Box 1494 | Healdsburg CA | 95448 unsubscribe

SUMMARY:Slow Books: The Upstairs Delicatessen: On Eating\, Reading\, Reading About Eating\, and Eating While Reading
DESCRIPTION:Slow Books is an ongoing activity of our chapter. The group meets every 6 weeks to discuss a food-related book and enjoy a potluck dinner based on the book. We meet in people’s homes which can usually only accommodate up to 8 people. For this reason\, we are usually unable to invite others than our core group of participants. \nBut we’re learning a lot from the books we’ve read\, and thought you might want to enjoy the books as well.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOCTOBER SELECTION: The Upstairs Delicatessen: On Eating\, Reading\, Reading About Eating\, and Eating While Reading\, by Dwight Garner \n\n\nDwight Garner\, the beloved New York Times critic and the author of Garner’s Quotations\, serves up the intertwined pleasures of books and food. The product of a lifetime of obsessively reading\, eating\, and every combination therein\, The Upstairs Delicatessen: On Eating\, Reading\, Reading About Eating\, and Eating While Reading is a charming\, emotional memoir\, one that only Garner could write. In it\, he records the voices of great writers and the stories from his life that fill his mind as he moves through the sections of the day and of this book: breakfast\, lunch\, shopping\, the occasional nap\, drinking\, and dinner.  \n\n\nThrough his lifelong infatuation with these twin joys\, we meet the man behind the pages and the plates\, and a portrait of Garner\, eager and insatiable\, emerges. He writes with tenderness and humor about his mayonnaise-laden childhood in West Virginia and Naples\, Florida (and about his father’s famous peanut butter and pickle sandwich)\, his mind-opening marriage to a chef from a foodie family (“Cree grew up taking leftover frog legs to school in her lunch box”)\, and the words and dishes closest to his heart. This is a book to be savored\, though it may just whet your appetite for more. (Amazon)
