Welcome to Eat Local London

I am a converted city girl, who has always been interested in the health of her environment. I moved out to the country - just north of London, Ontario in 2007 and have been trying to source local food ever since. Because I sometimes have found it a difficult process, I have decided to make this blog to help anyone else out there that may share the same interest in eating locally. If you are reading this blog and you are a farmer and you would like to be added to my map, or want me highlight your farm, just send me an email!

Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil

Sometimes I do wonder what happens in my garden at night! You go out there in the morning and some vegetables seem to have tripled in size - overnight. I also get to imagining..are there perhaps secret growth battles amongst the good tomatoes and the evil eggplants?

I am in Savannah, Georgia. For those of you still trying to connect the book to this post.. apparently it was filmed here, the above photo is the book cover that the film was inspired by.

I just wanted to give a shout out to my faithful readers and let you know I have not abandoned the blog.. I am merely off on a little work trip until Thursday is all.. sigh... in Savannah. ;)

I promise to bring back pecans and put them into a local dish or dessert of sorts to make you drool!

    Mmmmmmm... pecans... you're bringing those to work, right?!?

    Hope you're loving Savannah!

    Amazing website! I work at the Covent Garden Farmers' Market, and in our weekly newsletter we try and feature a person or business doing good things for the "Buy Local Movement." I was hoping we could feature your website next week. If you could get in touch with me at ckish@uwo.ca and let me know if this would be okay with you (and possibly answer a few questions), I'd really appreciate it. Either way, great job with the blog. Thanks!

    I love Savannah! We went to the cemetery they talk about in the book. Very cool and creepy.
