Recipes for Change Cookbook

first off, for anyone reading this blog, i'm sorry.

we have not been keeping our end of the bargain and giving you anything to read, but we hope to start keeping up.

good news, since the house has been approved for next year i have been hearing a lot of buzz around campus; it seems that people are actually interested in learning what it means to eat and live sustainably. two people who have come to talk to me are seniors katie godfrey and daniel stromeyer. this year they received a finstad grant to start a sustainable cookbook, and thought the wendell berry house would be the perfect group to carry it on next year. 

the cookbook is a perfect addition to our house and i urge all of you to buy a copy. we will also be accepting submissions of essays and recipes for next year's cookbook, so please submit them. just e-mail nussbam@gmail.com with any of your submissions.

one more thing, rob is being a very good co-president and has just completed the application to become a student org. so look out for the coalition for sustainable eating next fall!

A Tree Free Lunch

Shameless plug of the week:

If you remember the survey sent out earlier this year regarding Bon Appétit bag lunches and providing an Eco-friendly alternative, this survey was not from Bon Appétit but a student group on campus, who are selling these 100% recycled heavy duty cotton bags in the Finstad Marketplace for $5.


If you can’t swing by the marketplace, they will soon be offered for sale in the Cage.
