I spent a lot of my time researching and making connections with people to find my sources of food, and that takes time. - AlisonNot like I really knew what I was doing, I never know what I’m doing. - AndreaOnce it is ready, the bouza course we referred to will be loaded to the courses page on Alison's blog, Ancestral Kitchen"The chocolate book" we alluded to is The Secret Life of Chocolate by Marcos PatchettIn this podcast, Alison is asking us to help hold her accountable to leaving the super market! Feel free to leave comments on Instagram and ask us (both!) how it's going!I think I’m on a soapbox right now. - AndreaWhy We Get Fat by Gary Taubes for more fascinating information on the strategy and science behind supermarkets.Radical Homemakers by Shannon HayesHere's an idea that we didn't mention on this episode but you will hear more about later - share your farm and farmer's market and direct market hauls with the hashtag #bringbackhighstreet !Podcast with Ruth Layton Once we change the habit it becomes easy to maintain it, it’s the actual push of the switch that requires more impetus. - AlisonA Few Resources 46:37Eat WildReal Milk (WAPF Project)Weston A.
