Earl
Bloor and Candace Byrne
were introduced to Edible Communities when Candace googled "sustainability
Cape Cod" and the search revealed Edible Cape Cod. After
Candace wrote for both Edible Cape Cod and Edible Sacramento
and the couple saw first hand how the publications encouraged
sustainability in two very different locales, they embarked
on their own publication, Edible Shasta - Butte. This new venture,
grounded in Edible Communities' goal to "connect consumers
with family farmers, growers, chefs, and food artisans of all
kinds," complements the couple's long careers in education.
It also takes them back to their roots, when Earl grew up next
door to his parents' eatery, The Spot, in Kincardine, Ontario,
and Candace's mom engaged all the kids in baking and wrapping
goodies as gifts for every holiday. |
