Opportunity to Participate - Local Eating!
March 15, 2008
This is a call for new participants and a reminder to some of the existing ones. An episode is in the making that is to be the first of a four part series of episodes. The topic will be “local eating” and each participant is to try to implement local eating to whatever degree they are able (a dish, a meal, a day, or more). We will be recording on the equinoxes (spring/fall) and summer and winter solstices. While it might not look like it outside here in Canada, the first day of spring is only five days away so we need to get cracking!
Here are some details:
Date of first recording: March 20 (Feel free to fudge the day a little if it is easier to cook on the weekend)
Definition of local: I’ll leave that up to you but be reasonable.
Duration: 5-10 minutes has been par for the course
Format: 160 KBPS mp3 or better. Alternately those who are unable to record audio may provide text submissions - I can find a reader for you.
And then what? If you’re a member of the ning site, join the “Local Eating Four Part Episode” group and post your audio there attached to a forum message. If not, go ahead and join the ning site. Text contributors can email their contributions.
Please RSVP in the comments below (or in the ning group if you prefer) so I can guess at the length of the episode and assess the interest in the idea.
I’ll be joining as long as I can find a source for local food (I’ll be out of town that day).
