HAPPY NEW YEAR 2016.
I began the year mostly disconnected to technology which has me a few weeks off my to do calendar. As previously mentioned, Local Food and Food News are being updated at this moment and as much as hands can handle is being done to get it up online. Local Food is excited about this forthcoming issue. Yes, I admit to being excited with every update. And yes, again, I am hopeful that there will be more frequent postings.
Upcoming food events that you may find of interest.
