The bi-annual Terra Madre 2008 conference is going on now through October 27. It: “brings together food producers and workers from around the world, giving them the opportunity to discuss the major themes of food production. Together they share and compare the diverse and complex issues that underlie what “high-quality food” means to them: issues of environmental resources and planetary equilibrium, and aspects of taste, worker dignity, and consumer safety.”
Check in at their web site (linked in the above paragraph) for more coverage on this event, as well as world-wide info on people making a difference in their local agricultural traditions. This is one of my favorite web-sites!
