Renewing the Food Traditions of Salmon Nation
Transporting food from one region to another uses roughly one fifth of the entire U.S. energy budget. The sustainability of our food system can be dramatically improved by eating foods already adapted to our region.
 

This requires reorienting consumers to what “local” really means, and having consumers, producers and conservationists join forces to conserve each region’s endangered foods. Hear about success stories from Salmon Nation.
