Article for Boston Area Re: Food Bloggers and Local Produce
Brief quotes from that article with Blogs mentioned:
A news producer for Boston TV station Fox 25, Bingham calls her blog Lighter and Local (www.lighterandlocal.com), where her recipe postings include corn and chive risotto, and blueberry coffeecake.
That one got tweeted about by the popular “Local In Season’’ website (www.localinseason.com), bringing her 50 or more new followers.
The most mouth-watering posts come from Jane Ward, an Amesbury novelist and food writer whose Food and Fiction blog (www.authorjaneward.wordpress.com) offers recipes and photos based on her Community-Supported Agriculture shares from Cider Hill Farm in Amesbury and Heron Pond Farm in South Hampton, N.H.
Cooking 4 The Week (www.cooking4theweek.blogspot.com) chronicle her CSA share at Newburyport’s Arrowhead Farm, won in a choral society’s fund-raising raffle.
Using the bounty is also a topic for health coach Tracey Miller of Brentwood, N.H., blogging at www.traceymillerwellness.com.
Abigail Cahill O’Brien’s blog is called 5th Joy (www.5thjoy.com). The Rockport resident gets her CSA share from Farmer Dave’s in Dracut, which has a weekly drop-off in Gloucester. Her popular recipes include lentil-radish salad in thyme vinaigrette.
