Let's start our own
Maine FOOD REVOLUTION!

Inspired by Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution (ABC TV Fridays at 9 EDT)

For Jamie Oliver, British celebrity chef, Food Revolution is all about replacing junk, snacks and processed food with freshly cooked nutritious meals – in schools and at home. After three months working in Huntington, WV, Jamie has seen how a little bit of confidence can change people's lives and their health prospects. He believes, as do we, that we all have the power to make healthy choices.

As growers who supply fresh, local food to our neighbors here in the Bangor area in Maine, we encourage everyone to join the Revolution! When you...

• increase the use of fresh, locally grown produce and eggs
• step in the the kitchen as a family to prepare meals from these ingredients
• learn new recipes for fast, healthy fare
• and then take to the trails, streams and woods that surround us for exercise and to enjoy the bounty that is Maine

...you are doing something truly revolutionary for yourselves and our nation.

Over the course of the season, we will share recipes, hints, information and motivation, on these pages (check out the "Did you know?" link for suprising facts about the foods we eat) and at our booth during market season. We encourage everyone to share their own favorite quick and healthy meals, exercise tips and hints with us by email. The ones that really catch our attention will be added to this website as time permits.
