Beautiful Green Thing #7

To go along with the food theme of my last post, here’s a lovely little animated video that highlights the beauty of local food. A project for the 100 Mile Diet Society, the narrator visits several local food producers (as well as her own garden) to learn about and appreciate the ingredients she’s using to make a simple meal of pasta and salad in Vancouver, BC. It’s an adorable video with charming animation, but most importantly it shows the benefits and the connections that can be made when using local ingredients, getting to know who produces the food and sharing that beauty through a family meal.
