He requested that everyone become a farmer of sorts, and suggested planting basil, in order to understand and become involved in the agricultural process. He also suggested “voting with your fork”, making your economic decisions on which restaurant to dine in, ask questions, and find out if your venue is using local and sustainable food.

Chef Michael Chiarello, cheerfully admitting to having a slight red wine hangover, took the stage next. He talked about the process of taking over a piece of land that had previously been a non organic chemical farm, and transforming the land into organic, and watching the process over 7-8 years as the plot developed a new…

And I’m back from the 2009 Food and Wine Classic in Aspen! The experience was amazing to say the least, and I feel so thankful to have been a part of the premier culinary event of the year along with Average Betty.  Thank you once again to Plum Tv and Food and Wine Magazine!  We’ve so many savory stories, delicious photos and interviews to share, and here is the first palate pleaser:  Tasty Top Chef Fabio Viviani photos!

The Italian Top chef charmer showed up on our radar Saturday, and in true Fabio form was spotted chatting, hugging, and story telling with chef comrades throughout the afternoon.  Feast on this:

We usually prefer fast food as it can be served efficiently, at lower prices and casual atmosphere. By making smarter choices, fast food does not be harm for you. You should be an eye opener towards nutrition facts about fast food. If you have a special dietary concern, such as diabetes, heart health or weight loss, the websites of national non-profits provide useful advice. You can also choose to patronize restaurants that focus on natural, high quality food.

After reading that the Food & Wine Classic in Aspen has an active green initiative, and “Green Team” volunteers, I became curious.  How green really can events like this be?   Is it truly even possible?

I was lucky to have the opportunity to interview Devin Padgett, the Produce of Special Projects for Food and Wine, and master of all things green.  Here’s the scoop:

“Heidi:  We are here with Devin Padgett, of Food and Wine Magazine, Devin, can you tell us about your role in the event?

Devin:  I am the Producer of Special Projects, and this is my 21st Classic.  I run the whole Aspen side of the event and work in tandem year round with the New York team to make this all happen.

Heidi:   I’ve read about your green program in the brochure, and I see the recycle bins everywhere, but can you tell me more about it? What’s new for 2009?
