SFC Farmers Market Downtown

Kick off Eat Drink Local Week tomorrow morning at the SFC Farmers’ Market downtown

Click on the Play button above to listen to this week’s episode of the Austinot Podcast.

Old news: Austin is big on local. But we still tend to get into routines, visiting our favorite restaurants, eating our favorite meals and only occasionally stepping outside the bounds of the familiar. Part of the problem – at least for me – is that I don’t want to go out of my way to try something new…and then be disappointed.

Eat Drink Local Week is my solution for you. Edible Austin has put together an amazing, week-long event with the help of many local businesses and organizations. This is your opportunity to tour and taste local restaurants, urban farms and farmers’ market vendors that you have never experienced before. You’ll enjoy the experience even more once you know that your participation in this week-long event supports the Sustainable Food Center and youth development program Urban Roots. [Read more…]
