Plenty: One Man, One Woman, and a Raucous Year of Eating Locally by Alisa Smith

4.0

A good look at local eating. Due to a number of relevant contemporary issues, the authors decide to spend a year eating only foods grown within a 100 mile radius of their home in Vancouver, Canada. Like so many of the things we think are admirable but impossible, the authors pushed past excuses and found a way to make it work, learning a great deal along the way about their local community and themselves. The writing is good and the theme is encouraging.
