Where to find Vancouver seasonal foods would make a great topic for a blog

Submitted by Roland on Wed, 11/03/2004 - 10:29

In response to Porco's recent request, Barb pointed to The Fraser Valley Direct Marketing Association's produce availablity chart and Theresa pointed (thanks!) to Slow Food Vancouver's in SEASON now list.

These lists are great and all and may satisfy Porco, but I want more:

1) links to where I can buy this stuff in Vancouver
2) some supporting material e.g. links to recipes and how to buy and use this stuff 3) make this a full fledged category with an RSS feed so I can subscribe to it and get updates as it changes

All of the above is not rocket science and can be done easily by non technical people using a web browser if you use a modern system like Bryght (disclaimer, I am a founder of Bryght), Drupal, Blogware or MovableType.

Basically what I want is a blog about seasonal Vancouver foods, surprise, surprise! It would be cool if some farmers and chefs got together to write one. Call me at 604 729 7924 anytime if you are interested in starting such a thing! It would be a fun thing to do and not cost much.
