This week is the debut of the audio documentary I put together in the last few months as part of the class some of the staff at KAXE participated in put on by Milt and Jamie Lee. I was honored to participate in this workshop and learned some amazing things about telling a story through radio. Thanks to the MN Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund as well as the Blandin Foundation for making this possible.
So what is Realgoodfood all about then? Sometime last year, I started thinking more about food....finding interesting, good food when you live in a rural, northern place. Food coops have been expanding throughout northern Minnesota - farmer's markets are growing in popularity -more and more people are subscribing to CSAs (Community Supported Agriculture). All of this interested me, but I didn't know what story I wanted to tell.
So I grabbed the recording kit and got in my car and visited a farm in Bovey, Virginia (Natural Harvest Food Coop), Bemidji (Harmony Natural Food Coop) and Brainerd (Crow Wing Food Coop) in search of people making and selling good food. Hope you enjoy my audio story!
