Good Food with Evan Kleiman on KCRW

I had the honor of hanging with Evan Kleiman at the studio digs of KCRW, earlier this week, chatting about Ag, School gardens and more. Evan hosts a great radio show (and I do not use the word 'GREAT' lightly- she is a force in the food world- most foodies would wilt, then shrivel up and die without her Saturday morning show), the show is.. well you guessed it, about food. Growing food, eating food, where to find food, what have you put in my food, and WHY did you take my food! I brought her a tasty bag of citrus & avocado from our hood, and was pleased to see her dig right into the blood oranges from Stage Ranch. That damn good orange is featured all over our May/June menu at our new bistro "Small Bytes By Delytes" at Leonesse Cellars. Blood oranges do not hang around for a long time, they have a short season, which is currently at its peak. So you better hurry over and get your fill!

Evan is also the founder of Slow Food L.A., and an avid Gardner.. which brings me to my next point. Gardens, slow food, kids, good eats, health, community & food heritage. Did I just say that all in one breath- you bet your sweet buns I did. Because when it really boils down to the basics- it is our youth and food which equals gardening, heritage and community support thereof. We dialed in on the 21 garden programs that Slow Food Temecula has nurtured, and of course the great selection of produce that can be found here in our supple agricultural paradise! You'll have to tune in this Saturday to KCRW 89.9 (May 23)11am-Noon to hear the rest!

Not to forget: Field To The Fork- slow food temecula's slammin' May 31st event at Leonesse Cellars- to raise money for School gardens. Go Figure!

Green Catering Company- Delyte's Fine Foods

Dictionary: n. green: Green A supporter of a social and political movement that espouses global environmental protection, bioregionalism, social responsibility, and nonviolence.

Not a bad definition to fall under.

With so much happening these days, Michelle Obama planting an organic garden at the white house, Alice Waters on 60 minutes, and the major networks planning 'Green' driven shows, the word Green is in full use. So I am putting green eggs and ham back on the menu.. a little green goes a long way!

Super- D's is now at Leonesse Cellars serving up all kinds of organic, local yummy treats. We survived the silent opening.. and now are on the fast track to this weekends grand opening.. so feeling green my friends.. come eat some green!

goodness... it's tough being green.
