Social Soup
Finding Healthy Food in the City for All Economic Groups
Tuesday, January 18, 2011, 12:00-1:30 p.m.
University of Utah, Goodwill Humanitarian Building, Room 155

Often local food is equated with foodies who are not concerned with budgeting their food dollars, but local food can be affordable. This session, featuring speakers from Wasatch Community Gardens, People's Market, and Utah Community Supported Agriculture in Utah, focuses on finding healthy and affordable food in our city. Come with your questions and leave with useful information.

This series also provides free, vegetarian soup featuring local ingredients. The event itself is also free and open to the public.

Saturday, January 29th, 6:00-8:00 p.m.
Mountain Valley Seed Warehouse

3. Bring your friends to the Seed Swap.
4. Trade or donate your seeds with local garden enthusiasts & farmers.
5. Use your new seeds to start or expand your space with variety.

Also accepting non-perishable donations for local food banks.

About the Challenge

Developing a greater awareness about our food—that’s what the Eat Local Challenge is about. While the “standard” Challenge is described as consuming only foods from within a 250 mile radius for a whole month, whatever makes this experience fun and educational (and a challenge to you) is valid.

Is this your first year for the whole family? Consider doing one week of completely local. Are you feeling really strapped for time and realizing that there are really no ready-made meals available locally? Try choosing a couple of food groups such as produce and meats and just be true to those. (You’ll save time on not having to make pasta or bread.)

However you challenge yourself this year—have fun and enjoy learning about your food consumption!

This blog is written by authors who are interested in building community while supporting our local economy and global ecology.

We're interested in your questions, suggestions, and ideas for local resources so please comment under the relevant topic.

If you want to start a NEW topic, contribute new posts to the blog, add events to the calendar, or have other suggestions for improving this blog, please email tarapoelzing@yahoo.com.
