Ep 136 Chef Stephanie Oelsligle Jordan: Sometimes Lentils Have Grassroots agri-Culture

From Sustainable Solano’s website…
“We are a grassroots, countywide movement uniting people through work that aims to serve the future of Solano County, to promote ecologically regenerative, economically and socially just communities in a world that works for everyone. Sustainable Solano has grown out of decades of dedicated community work that started with community gardens and has grown to include an emphasis on creating sustainable, regenerative environments, community capacity building, supporting local food systems and building youth leadership and workforce skills for a better future.”
That’s definitely right up our alley, and perfect for those that want to support their local food supply.  But can they cook?  The answer is undoubtedly “Yes!”
Listen in to this week’s podcast, as we chat with Chef Stephanie Oelsligle Jordan – Sustainable Solano’s Program Manager, Chef Extraordinaire, and spreader-of-the-good-vibes (and yummy cold lentil salad on a warm summer night).  We met at a farm screening of the Holstein Dilemma documentary (the Ag and Art Film Fest in Vacaville, California is again right up our alley), and were truly impressed with the yummy offerings.
