A LETTER FROM THE FOUNDER OF FOODDAY

THE WELL FED

FAMILY

SPECIAL THANKS

Pat Gallagher Dave Hamer Food Day Sponsors & Participants CREATIVE DIRECTOR

any people know my organization, the Center for Science in the Public Interest, as a leading advocate for better nutrition and food safety. But nutrition is only part of the story. It’s time for nutrition advocates to start collaborating more closely with people who work to support sustainable farms, reduce hunger, reform factory farms to protect animals and the environment, and support fair working conditions for food and farm workers. That’s why I launched Food Day in 2011. Our goal on Food Day is to inspire people all over the country to organize thousands of events each year around October 24 to celebrate healthy, delicious eating and mobilize for better food policies. Those events—over 3,200 were registered at FoodDay.org in 2012—range from cooking lessons in homes and classrooms, to rallies and festivals, to hearings at city councils. This year, I invite you to join me at Well FED’s Savannah Food Day festival on Saturday, October 26. This event has been one of the largest Food Day celebrations in the country for three years in a row, and I am honored to take part.

Each year, a handful of people, businesses and organizations come together to bring you this free festival. Their commitment to our community and to the advancement of a sustainable food system cannot be adequately reciprocated through a logo printed on a page. (But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a start...) It is our hope that our readers and the community take a moment to observe these gracious leaders and find it in their hearts to thank them in their own way...

What is Food Day ? Think of it as an Earth Day - for food! Food Day is a nationwide celebration of healthy, affordable, and sustainably produced food and a grassroots campaign for better food policies. Food Day aims to help people Eat Real. That means cutting back on sugar drinks, overly salted packaged foods, and fatty, factory-farmed meats in favor of vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and sustainably raised protein. Food Day envisions shorter lines at fast-food drive-throughs and bigger crowds at farmers markets. This annual event involves some of the country’s most prominent food activists, united by a vision of food that is healthy, affordable, and produced with care for the environment, farm animals, and the people who grow, harvest, and serve it. With Food Day, we can celebrate our food system when it works and fix it when it’s broken. Across the country, thousands of events take place on the national Food Day date of October 24th, just a few days before our very own Savannah Food Day Festival on October 26th

Here in Savannah, for a 3rd year in a row, Well FED will be hosting THE L ARGEST FOOD DAY FESTIVAL IN THE COUNTRY !

Get to know the lowcountry’s local farmers and food producers through this series of Q & A sessions with the vendors of Savannah’s Forsyth Farmers’ Market.

Meet October’s Forsyth Farmers’ Market Vendor of the month! NAME: Ann Gassenheimer & Pat Gallagher COMPANY: Vegetable Kingdom LOCATION: Gardens’ Corner, South

Carolina just outside of Beaufort. ONLINE: www.vegetablekingdom.com You can also find them on Facebook. MAIN PRODUCTS: Canned & preserved

goods including jams, jellies, chutneys, sauces, pickles and more. Specific offerings at the FFM: S Our products include Gumbo, Creole, Etouffee, Chow Chow, Zucchini Relish, Hot Pepper Pecan Jelly, Smoky Pepper Jelly, Lime Pepper Jelly, Hot Pear Chutney, Mango Chutney, Smoky Pineapple Sauce, Tofu Dressing, Dee’s Diamond Dressing, Peach Mango Jam, Watermelon Raspberry Jam, and Caramel Apple Butter. We also carry Cranberry Apple Relish and Orange Cranberry Sauce for the holidays.

What are your most popular products? That would be Gumbo, Hot Pepper Pecan Jelly, and Smoky Pepper Jelly. In the summer months, Chow Chow, and Zucchini Relish are favored for their addition to sandwiches and salads. Caramel Apple Butter and Watermelon Raspberry brighten winter months.

Name a product that is often overlooked but shouldn’t be: The Smoky Pineapple Sauce, which

was developed to accompany Latin and Caribbean foods. It has an equally sweet and hot taste, combined with a velvety texture that makes it very versatile. It can be used as a marinade or finishing sauce, modified to make a BBQ or Thai sauce, and is delicious as a dip for roasted sweet potatoes and chips.

Where do you get the ingredients for your products? Are they organic or local? We buy ingredients from South Carolina, Georgia & North Carolina whenever possible, always starting right here first. Sometimes if we are asked to produce out of season, we may go further north to the heartland or south to Florida. We use organic when we can, but it’s more important to us that we know the farmers and the methods they use.

That kind of connection really helps to build a sense of community in our area. We also tend a quarter acre garden in which we organically grow many ingredients for our products. This year we reached a milestone -- every product we make contains at least one just picked component.This homegrown element translates into fresh flavor. -Continued on Next Page WELLF EDSAVA NNA H. C OM | FEED 23

Is your family also involved in farming, food preservation or canning? If not, how did you become involved?

We both grew up in families very connected to food and agriculture. Ann’s great-grandfather was in the Shreveport, LA newspaper for having the best “victory garden” during WWII. From this garden her great-grandmother, grandmother and mother preserved bounty year after year. Canning with them was a much anticipated summer tradition in Ann’s life. Pat’s grandmother, who could make anything taste delicious, taught him to cook a roux at the age of six. Everyone grew vegetables, herbs, fruits and flowers, and it greatly enriched our lives. We believe carrying forward the act of growing is tremendously important.

FESTIVAL saturday

OCTOBER 19 10AM to 4PM

What is special about the products you sell?

We have learned that all of the precepts are true -work hard and practice often, pay attention to detail, and test each product multiple times. We don’t scrimp on ingredients, even if they’re expensive. All of the products are extremely versatile, and can be used in many ways beyond what you see on the label. You can find recipe suggestions on our website. We love to hear from our customers about how they have incorporated our products into their meals.

Why participate in farmers’ markets?

We got our start at markets, where we began testing our products. If we were to compile a list of all the products we have ever brought to market, it would probably number in the hundreds. We love the markets, because we are able to interact directly with other growers & we can engage with our customers. We will always participate in farmers markets because they are the best way for us to stay connected to people, and to communicate with food lovers who are full of great questions, suggestions and ideas. The dynamic of the farmers market keeps us fresh because everyone is always asking “ what’s new?”

Celebrating Fall

with friends & family!

What is your favorite product that you make and how do you like to use it?

We use all of our products, of course! Smoky Pepper Jelly is delicious with Asian dumplings or an egg, bacon, and toast breakfast. Watermelon Raspberry Jam is delectable with blue cheese.

“Starvation is the characteristic of some people not having enough food to eat. It is not the characteristic of there being not enough food to eat. While the latter can be a cause of the former, it is but one of many possible causes.” - Amartya Sen

feeding the world SUSTAINABLY by Peter Mundy & Emily Lancaster, Animal Welfare Approved

he intensification of livestock farming over the last 60 years is heralded by those who profit from it as an unmitigated success, dramatically increasing the availability of food—and in particular, meat and livestock products. Now with strident calls to feed the rest of the world with their products, the same people say that the further intensification of agriculture is the only realistic and viable solution. But is this really the case?

Industrial or Sustainable? Over recent years, industrial farming lobbyists have promoted the idea that we need to increase global food production by 50% by 2030—and double food production by 2050—to feed our growing population. They argue the only way we can sustainably meet the growing global demand for food is to further intensify production. This means more agrochemicals, more genetically modified (GM) crops, and more intensively raised livestock dependent on large doses of subtherapeutic antibiotics. Unfortunately, the devastating truth is that although we already produce more than enough food for everyone, one billion people continue to go hungry. At the same time, obesity and diet-related ill health run out of control, and the environmental costs of industrial production are becoming unbearable. Feeding the world’s growing population will never be achieved by producing “more” of the same food. 26 FEED | W E L LFEDS AVAN N AH .CO M

This overly simplistic notion only worsens the human health and environmental problems associated with industrial agriculture, and with our high-calorie, highly processed Western diet. We know that climate change and diminishing natural resources (such as fossil fuels) are a reality, which makes it all the more vital that we find a real solution—not just a Band-Aid. Intensive agriculture is so obviously flawed that further intensification is simply not an option: we need a wholesale shift in food production toward an agriculture that nourishes our planet rather than depletes it.

“Agricultural sustainability is based on the principle that we are able to meet the needs of the present without compromising the future generation’s ability to meet their own needs. Allowing cattle to mature on a grassfed system maintains and enhances the earth’s vital resources for the long term instead of depleting its nutrients. A top priority of our family at Hunter Cattle Company is to offer a healthy and safe farm to our grandsons when they are ready to take the reins.” – Del Ferguson, AWA-certified Hunter Cattle Company in Brooklet, GA

Agroecology: Backed By Science Many credible reports and policy documents support this position. In 2008, the International Assessment of Agricultural Knowledge, Science and Technology for Development (IAASTD) concluded that small-scale farming and agroecological practices have a vital role to play in feeding the world in the future, and questioned the effectiveness of GM crops in helping to alleviate hunger. In March 2011, the United Nations (UN) released Agro-ecology and the right to food, which called for a fundamental shift towards agroecology to boost food production and improve the situation of the world’s poorest people. These solutions are not only relevant to developing nations—they offer hope to developed countries as well. A 2010 report from the National Research Council on the future of U.S. farming, entitled Toward Sustainable Agricultural Systems in the 21st Century, exposed the negative consequences of industrialized farming, calling for a more holistic approach to food production in the U.S. This past summer, the UN released a groundbreaking report, subtitled Wake Up Before It Is Too Late: Make agriculture truly sustainable now for food security in a changing climate. This report recommends that “farming in rich and poor nations alike should shift… towards greater varieties of crops, reduced use of fertilizers and other inputs, greater support for small-scale farmers, and more locally focused production and consumption of food.” The message cannot be any clearer.

“We are of nature, what we eat is of nature. Pasture-based farming is not only less expensive but also healthier all the way around. We must get back to our roots, the way it was before agriculture became industrialized. We didn’t have as many diseases and lived better. In order to sustain as a species we have to eat food that ‘lives off the land’; and Animal Welfare Approved farmers like the Hunter Cattle Family are a living example for us all.” – Ashley Anderson, Wendy Armstrong, and the Thrive Team, Thrive Café in Savannah, GA (AWA vendor)

FOOD LABELS EXPOSED The New App from AWA

Food for a Sustainable Future Animal Welfare Approved (AWA) holds the position that scientifically sound high-welfare and sustainable farming systems present a real alternative to industrial farming. On Food Day 2013, why not commit to reducing your consumption of unsustainable, low-welfare, intensively raised meat, dairy and eggs, and choose high-welfare, pastureraised products instead? You’ll be supporting truly sustainable farming systems that are better for the environment, better for the animals, better for farmers, and better for future generations.

So you want to eat sustainably, but how do you navigate the bewildering sea of food labels? Available for both iPhone and Android devices, AWA’s free Food Labels Exposed app provides succinct, clear, and factual definitions for over 80 common food terms and claims. Visit www.AnimalWelfareApproved.org.

ABOUT ANIMAL WELFARE APPROVED Animal Welfare Approved audits, certifies and supports farmers raising their animals according to the highest welfare standards, outdoors on pasture or range. Called a “badge of honor for farmers” and the “gold standard,” AWA is the most highly regarded food label in North America when it comes to animal welfare, pasture-based farming, and sustainability. All AWA standards, policies and procedures are available on the AWA website, making it the most transparent certification available.

Animal Welfare Approved’s Online Directory of AWA farms, restaurants and products enables the public to search for AWA farms, restaurants and products by zip code, keywords, products and type of establishment. In addition, AWA has published Food Labeling for Dummies, a regularly updated guide to commonly used food claims and terms, available free for download at: www.AnimalWelfareApproved.org.

A Primer on

GMOS

There’s a lot of talk about GMOS, here’s what you need to know about GMOs and why there is not a place in the food stream for genetic modifications.

Written by Peter Brodhead of Brighter Day Natural Foods

here is plenty of talk about GMOs – Genetically Modified Organisms – on the television news, in print and even across social media sites. But what exactly are GMOs – and what’s the outrage? GMO’s are plants or animals that have been created through an artificial gene splicing that forces the DNA of a plant, animal or bacteria to merge its DNA into another organism so that the new organism takes on qualities not found naturally in that species. The new organism created has characteristics that can’t happen through traditional cross breading or hybridization which follows the rules of natural evolution. In the US, 88-95 percent of six major crops soybeans, corn, canola, sugar beets, cotton, and now alfalfa – were previously grown without herbicides. Now, these major crops are grown from GMO seeds – which are engineered to tolerate high levels of herbicides and survive. According to the US Department of Agriculture, this will result in up to 23 million more pounds of toxic herbicides released into the environment each year. The leading producer of GMO crops - which are marketed as “Roundup Ready” – is Monsanto, a chemical and agricultural biotechnology company based here in the US. This technology allows Monsanto to sell both the seed and the herbicide, “Roundup” glyphosate – which kills the weeds around a crop but does not affect the growth of the “Roundup Ready” plant itself, to North American farmers. This double sale has increased the use of herbicides -- especially “Roundup” – by 500 million pounds in the last 16 years.

Other major companies developing and marketing GMO’s In the last year, Dow Chemical-Dow Agro Sciences, Bayer Crop Science and BASF which have all relocated their operations from Europe to the United States because of the anti-GMO environment in Europe are some of the other major companies involved with GMOs. Currently, wheat and even salmon are in the process for approval even though there are huge environmental concerns about salmon in particular. GMO salmon contain a growth hormone gene taken from a Chinook salmon (an unrelated species) which permits the growth hormone to basically never shut off, so these particular GMO fish grow at twice the normal rate. The GMO salmon eggs are currently produced in Canada on Prince Edwards Island and then flown to a landlocked lake in Panama where the fish mature. Scientists estimate that if these modified salmon escape into the natural marine environment, in 40 generations, there Atlantic salmon would become extinct. GMO companies are still moving forward researching numerous other fish and plants. -Continued on Next Page WELLF EDSAVA NNA H. C OM | FEED 31

Who is Minding the Store? GMO’s are overseen by the Us Food and Drug Administration but there is no required approval process. Instead there is a voluntary consultation process in which the FDA reviews studies produced by the same companies who make the GMOs. Foods are generally presumed to be safe unless the FDA has evidence to the contrary. The vast majority of safety studies of GMOs provided by the bio-tech industry have been short term 90-day studies. You might find it interesting that Michael Taylor, the current head of food safety for the FDA, was a former VP for Monsanto.

Health effects of GMOs Glyphosate (Roundup) has been found to interact with the probiotic bacteria in our intestines. It kills weeds by blocking the plants ability to absorb minerals and nutrients from the soil so the immune system of the plant is damaged and the plant dies of disease. Long term studies of feeding animals GMO corn or soy conducted independently of the biotech industry have shown damage to the animals’ GI tract and reproductive system.

Superweeds are developing Outside of health issues, some of the major recent developments in GMO’s are new super weeds that have developed resistance to glyphosate. Companies now have to develop new herbicide resistant GMO plants. Dow AgroSciences is awaiting approval of 2, 4-D-resistant corn and soybeans. 2,4-D is one of the oldest herbicides and was a component of Agent Orange used so prolifically during the Vietnam war. Naturally occurring Bt, a pesticide actually created by corn and cotton plants, is also being rendered ineffective due to the highly pesticide-resistant strains of the GMO seed. In the past year, even the corn worm has developed a resistance to the Bt pesticide produced by the corn plant.

Genetic pollution is a major concern Canola readily cross pollinates with members of the brassica family – broccoli, cabbage and kale – and can implant the Roundup-ready gene into this plant species. Alfalfa is pollinated by bees and cross-contamination can imbed GMO genes into organic alfalfa. In fact, this just happened in Washington State.

There’s so much more to learn! www.centerforfoodsafety.org www.responsibletechnology.org www.nongmoproject.org

join the march against monsanto! OCT.12 / NOON / JOHNSON SQUARE You can be a part of the international day of protesting Monsanto. This is the second worldwide protest this year. Europe says ‘no,’ production goes up The argument that GMO farming is more productive has been dispelled by a new European study showing that European farms are out-producing the US using non-GMO methods. Over 50 countries in the world now have mandatory labeling of foods containing GMOs. In the US, on the night of Sept. 11, 2013, Congress extended the “Monsanto Protection Act” for 3 more months which protects Monsanto from any lawsuits caused by environmental or health problems caused by GMOs. Meanwhile the USDA has quietly approved the first of a new generation of GMO crops resistant to more toxic herbicides.

Product labeling In New York, a recent poll showed 93% of respondents favor mandatory labeling of GMOs in food. Washington state voters will go to the polls this November to determine if their state will require mandatory GMO content labeling. When Europe required mandatory labeling in 1999, it only took 4 months to eliminate GMOs from the food supply. European consumers rejected GMOs and the food manufacturing companies scrambled to satisfy them and to find alternative sources. In the US, Monsanto has invested $ 4.5 million into defeating the GMO labeling bill– part of a trust comprised of funds from a variety of bio-tech companies, the national grocers association and other large corporate food companies.

Simple rules for avoiding GMOs Any product that is certified organic cannot contain GMOs. Foods containing soy, corn, canola or cottonseed oil that are not organic should clearly state that they are free of GMOs -- the best being certified by the Non-GMO project. If you are eating sugar make sure the label says cane sugar, remember that all high fructose corn sweeteners.

NATL. SCHOOL LUNCH WEEK OCTOBER 14-18

from farm to lunch room by Rhonda Barlow, MPH, RD, LD, CLC

ctober is the traditional month to celebrate the year’s harvest. Its also a time to celebrate the educational value of eating the school’s lunch with a District-wide National School Lunch Program celebration. During the week of October 14 – 18, lunchrooms across Chatham County will hold week long events, activities, and contests. The purpose of this week-long school lunch fest is to celebrate all that is tasty and nutritious in the school lunch meal. Thus far this year, the Chatham County School Nutrition Program has served over 7,000 lunch meals to students.

This lunch time celebration was officially named the National School Lunch Week Campaign in 1962 by President John K. Kennedy; in a positive effort to celebrate the benefits of providing low-cost nutritious meals to the nation’s children during the school day. This year’s theme is “School Lunch: Across the USA” and it celebrates the regional flavors in school cafeterias all across the country. The lunch menu for the week will highlight various menu items representing the Southwest, Northwest, Southeast, Midwest, Western regions of our country.

t h g i r t e i d raw nds?

e i a r f y r s r i for your fu

Written by Dorian Bryant of TailsSpin

ave you ever seen a dog or cat cooking over a hot stove to prepare their dinner? Of course not. The truth is that our pets would eat raw foods if left to their own devices (not to mention they lack the opposable thumbs to use a sauté pan). It may be unsavory to think of, but our pets are carnivores and incorporating raw meats, uncooked ground bone, and fresh fruits and vegetables into your companion’s diet can greatly affect their overall health. The philosophy of an ancestral raw diet for our pets stems from the fact that our cats’ and dogs’ digestive systems are specialized to digest raw meat, organ meats and bones. It would be completely natural for their ancestors to devour an animal whole and thus completely natural for Fido and Whiskers. Apart from their instinctive bias, raw food also helps ensure your pets are eating minimally processed, nutritious foods. Imagine if you only ate packaged, processed foods and how your health would suffer. You would run a high risk for diabetes and obesity, and it’s the same for our furry family members. Raw diets are extremely flexible, and allow for you to customize your pet’s diet to be organic, local and seasonal.

Dogs and cats will have improved digestion as their systems find it difficult to process carbohydrates and grains. A lower carbohydrate diet will also help pets manage weight better and keep their blood sugar levels in check. Pets with allergies tend to benefit from raw diets due to their ease of customization. If your pup scratches at the sight of grain, you can simply omit it, and if your cat turns up his nose to poultry you can feed beef or venison. The beauty of a raw diet is that you aren’t limited to what a company manufactures.You are free to select quality product from your grocery store, local farmer’s market or butcher shop. Cats in particular are the real winners when fed raw diets. Our domesticated felines are called Obligate Carnivores, meaning that they must eat meat to survive. Our cats’ bodies cannot make certain amino acids themselves, and therefore must acquire them from their diets. -Continued on Next Page

Feeding raw has many notable benefits for your pets, according to Mike Sagman of DogFoodAdvisor.com.

you’re talking about me,

aren’t you?

“raw fruits and vegetables like carrots, sweet potatoes, green beans, apples or blueberries can add variety to your pet’s regular diet...”

Cats are also notorious for not drinking enough water, which can cause complications including crystals in their kidneys. A raw diet is a perfect solution to this as raw meats contain a very high percentage of water. For instance, the raw ground beef you make your hamburgers with is about 60% water, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. This high protein and water content can go a long way to ensure your cat is healthy and hydrated.

You must be thinking this raw food diet sounds too good to be true. There must be drawbacks, right? Well, the main downside to a raw diet for your pets is convenience. Raw diets take more time to prepare than it does to pour some kibble into a bowl. A raw diet will require time for mixing ingredients and, in some cases, soaking or puréeing fruits and vegetables for optimum digestibility. Convenience aside, another concern is bacterial contamination. Working with raw meat, there is always a concern for contamination but the risk for your pets is very low. Dogs and cats have shorter, more acidic digestive tracts, helping make infection very rare. The real concern is you, the owner, but by using common sense practices when handling raw meat will greatly reduce your risk.

Even if you feel that a raw diet may not be something that you want to switch your pets over to completely, you can still incorporate many aspects of the raw diet into your pet’s food. Supplementing your dog or cat’s meals with raw goodness can be an excellent option and will provide your pets with a nutritious boost. Small amounts of raw meat can be mixed with kibble to add extra protein and water, which is especially great for cats. If raw meat is a concern for you, incorporating raw fruits and vegetables like carrots, sweet potatoes, green beans, apples or blueberries can add variety to your pet’s regular diet and provide vitamins and antioxidants. Remember that you need to soak or puree the vegetables or fruits that you add to your pets meals for maximum digestibility. Also, be mindful of the sugar levels in the fruits and vegetables (like carrots) that you provide, as too much sugar is never a good thing for humans or our companions, so give them sparingly. If you are considering a raw diet for your dog or cat, the first step to take is to consult your veterinarian. It is important to fully understand any diet before switching your pet. Once you’ve decided that a raw diet is appropriate for your pets you need to ease them gradually into eating it. A period of two weeks is the best time frame to switch, over which you will gradually increase the amount of raw food. At the end of the first week, your pet should be eating half raw and half of their old diet. By the end of week two, your pet will be fully transitioned to a fresh, healthy and nutritious raw diet.

“At the Well FED household, we sometimes use small pieces of bananas, carrots, or frozen blueberries as treats. “ -Whitney Johnson, Well FED If time is a concern for you, a commerciallyavailable raw diet could be an excellent option. These diets usually come frozen or freeze-dried and may already have meat included. The process is as simple as thawing in the fridge or soaking in water, and voila! – a complete, balanced raw diet for your pet in no time at all. Mixing larger batches and freezing them is also a good idea to save a lot of preparation time. These pre-prepared raw diets are widely available at pet food chains and local pet stores.

Have more raw diet or nutritional questions about your pets? Consult your pet’s veternarian and speak and chat up your local pet store employees about what they recommend.
