EDITORS’S DISH Remembering Earth Day In this issue, we celebrate Earth Day – a day that in this community is focused on education, advocacy and heightened awareness of our fragile planet. The day has taken on a global significnace and is celebrated around the world in a variety of ways. However, its genesis lies in a single environmental disaster that has nearly been forgotten. U.S. Sen. Gaylord Nelson (WI) first proposed the idea after witnessing the 1969 Santa Barbara oil spill. At the time, this deepwater well blowout was the largest spill to have occurred on U.S. shores and it still ranks third behind the 2010 Deepwater Horizon spill and the 1989 Exxon Valdez spill. Nelson insisted that any such day be a true grassroots movement – modeled after Vietnam War “teach-ins” of the time. His focus and determination paid off. Those first Earth Day events in 1970 proved compelling enough that the movement became self-perpetuating. In his book, “How the First Earth Day Came About,” Nelson explained, “Earth Day worked because of the spontaneous response at the grassroots level. We had neither the time nor resources to organize 20 million demonstrators and the thousands of schools and local communities that participated. That was the remarkable thing about Earth Day. It organized itself.” Here we are 43 years later, preparing to celebrate another Earth Day, another coming of spring. The topics remain largely the same -- only magnified and better quantified since 1970. The ozone hole continues to grow, climatic change is real and we still drive gas-guzzling automobiles. Sustainability remains a challenge and many of our environmental problems in the U.S. have merely been shifted to Third World countries were less stringent regulations allow blatant pollution and careless waste disposal. Some things have improved. Recycling is more universally embraced; landfills are shrinking and our acceptance to reuse or reclaim has grown. Oh, and one thing that hasn’t changed is that Earth Day is still a grassroots movement. Without each and every one of us rallying behind myriad causes the strides made over the last 43 years would not have happened. There’s still plenty to do. Take every opportunity to educate, advocate and be an example. Earth Day is really every day.

earth day 2013 s ava n n a h

Since Earth Day started in 1970 as a response to the cumulative effects of industrialization reaching a critical point in our environment, it has become a day for our community to remember how we effect our planet and each other with the choices we make in our everyday lives. It’s a day to open our eyes to new issues, open our minds to new solutions, and to celebrate— celebrate the good work being done around us, and the almost 10,000 of our neighbors who turn out in a show of hope for our community’s path for the future. It’s with this in mind that every spring that the City of Savannah invite the community to come together to open dialogues and build partnerships between citizens, non-profits, businesses, and government that will benefit us all. Earth Day Savannah offers a little something for everyone—from those familiar with the issues, to those just starting to learn. With workshops for adults, kids’ activities, over 100 exhibiting organizations, live music, and delicious food, you’ll find ways to connect and make change.

Community Gardens by Margosia Jadkowski, City of Savannah Environmental Planner

A community garden is about far more than growing tasty vegetables for its caretakers’ tables – it’s also about cultivating community. A community garden is a natural fit for Savannah’s vibrant network of community organizations and its culture that thrives on social gatherings and good food.

Interested in a community garden in your neighborhood? Here’S HoW THe InITIATIve WorkS: • Take a look at the City policy: It outlines requirements for gardens that address safety of the gardeners, address possible concerns with the surrounding neighborhood, and defines how the group will be responsible for maintaining the property. • Get together a group of interested residents, contact the City of Savannah, and work together to find a site that is well suited for a garden and will meet the needs of your group. • Fill out the short application to the City to lease the plot. The process includes a letter of intent, garden plan and proof of support from the surrounding properties. • Once you’ve been approved and get organized, get to gardening! Groups like the Savannah Urban Garden Alliance, Master Gardeners and UGA Cooperative Extension are great resources for gardening classes and workshops.

To learn more visit www.savannahga.gov/ communitygardens or contact Carol Moon at cmoon@savannahga.gov or (912) 651-6524.

The City of Savannah’s new Community Garden Initiative is making it easier to start new community gardens. There are already managed school gardens or community center gardens like those at Moses Jackson Center or West Broad Street YMCA – to a collection of individually tended plots like Starfish Community Garden and Skidaway Farms. Community gardens are mirrors of their tenders – from organizations to groups of neighbors. At the heart of these plots is the opportunity for people to come together, to invest in growing stronger communities, becoming better neighbors, and finding a bit of self-sufficiency in the shared harvest. The benefits don’t stop there. Community gardens can reduce family food budgets, encourage selfreliance, beautify neighborhoods, increase urban green space, reduce water pollution and lower summer heat by adding more green space. Of course, gardening also provides healthy food and opportunities for intergenerational and cross-cultural relationships to build between active, neighborhood gardeners. There are several successful community gardens in Chatham County already. However, a 2011 Metropolitan Planning Commission report indicated that more than 19,000 Savannahians live in a “food desert,” areas that have little or no access to fresh produce. The Community Garden Initiative aims to help interested groups and neighbors to identify the several dozen vacant city-owned properties where gardens would be welcome. The first groups to take advantage of Savannah’s Community Garden Initiative have been SCAD and the Hudson Hill Neighborhood Association, which goes to show that the need and interest for gardens spans our diverse community.

SLOW FOOD S AVA N N A H Slow Food is an international organization with more than 200 chapters in the U.S. that works to bring good, clean and fair food to all. Slow Food believes that the current culture of fast and processed food is tied to a loss in pleasure, tradition and community. The Savannah Slow Food chapter was formed in 2010 and adheres to the organizationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s call for a return to a slower way of consuming food, to purchasing local and sustainable ingredients and to cooking with care and joy. Though the Savannah chapter is small it is made up of passionate individuals and is looking for likeminded citizens (like you) to join the cause. And like the chapters in more than 150 countries worldwide, Slow Food Savannah actively engages in the community through events such as Food Day and Earth Day. Its members have hosted film nights and farm dinners and have given support to students working on local food projects. In short, Slow Food links the pleasure of food with a commitment to community and the environment. Every bite we eat is an opportunity to reinforce sustainability, enhance nutrition education and heighten awareness about our food stream.

If you are interested in cultivating a healthy local food scene, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a candidate for membership! To learn more and to join in, members and prospective members can attend a POTLUCK ON THURSDAY, APRIL 11, 5 P.M. AT THE SENTIENT BEAN. Bring a local and seasonal dish to share. For more information or questions, e-mail the organization at: slowfoodsavannah@gmail.com

First in a series of Forsyth Farmer’s Market vendor profiles: Savannah River Farms, a farm owned and operated by Ben and Kellie Deen and their family in Sylvania, Ga.

Written by Shabnam Gideon Photography by Gary’s Photos

savannah river farms

ike the four generations before him,

Ben Deen came up in Georgia raising animals, and learning what it takes to do so naturally, humanely and sustainably. He and Kellie have been married 28 years and have four children. Their son, Benjamin, has been a part of the farm team for 10 years. They have an obvious love for their livelihood as farmers, eagerly meet their customers at market and at co-ops and are grateful to return to their quiet community of farmer friends. The Deens’ dedication to raising their animals with care has earned praise from the Animal Welfare Approved (AWA) agency, and leads to healthier animals and higher quality products. Following animal husbandry practices handed down from Ben’s family, most of their animals are birthed on farm; others are purchased from a neighboring AWA farm. Their cattle breeds include Brahma and Angus; pigs include Land Racer, Berkshire,Yorkshire and many cross-breeds. They grow and mill their own corn and sorghum, which comprise most of the animals’ feed; supplemental soybeans are purchased from a neighbor. 20

FEED | W E LL FEDS AVAN N AH .CO M

Savannah River Farms are regulars at Forsyth Farmers’ Market, where they bring their specialty -pastured pork -- plus pastured beef, lamb and poultry. In addition to the long list of cuts and sausages they bring to market each week, they also fulfill orders for custom cuts because they do their own butchering. All of their products are antibiotic- and artificial hormone-free.

I’d come to learn that it is extremely expensive and time-intensive for any meat farmer to locate a humane processing facility, haul animals to wherever that facility may be, and then pay higher processing fees. Building a processing facility like the Deens’ is neither a small nor an inexpensive endeavor: It usually requires a six-figure investment plus the addition of nearly three more employees. Having an on-farm facility is ideal, but not possible for most farmers, especially farmers who are self-supporting.

Why is having a humane slaughter facility on-site so important? How the meat you eat tastes and how well it nourishes your body and the locality (economically, agriculturally, psychically) in which it was produced is most greatly affected by how the animal spends its life. All that nurturing can be undone in the few minutes or hours closest to its life ending. During a visit with the Deens, I saw the animals in their day-to-day habitats; “helped” load the animals onto a trailer, and rode alongside them to the processing facility, a trip which lasted only a matter of minutes. The necessary and humane practices of the Deen family reinforces the natural, caring cycle their livestock go through before becoming part of your meal. It was reassuring to witness their practices. The Deens, like so many of the Forsyth Farmers’ Market vendors, are hard-working and dedicated to their vocation. Get to know the Deens further by stopping to say hello during your next market visit – they will be happy to explain in more detail their processes, practices and philosophy.

A GREENER CLEAN T

hose off-the-shelf, chemical based cleaners promise to bring a shine to our homes and leave behind a smell that’s as fresh as an Alpine forest or as fragrant as a California orange grove. But at what cost? Family members with allergies or who are prone to respiratory problems, curious pets with licking tongues and good old Mother Earth would appreciate a more gentle approach to house cleaning. One way to do that is to ditch the chemicals and concoct cleaning solutions from natural ingredients. The impact goes far beyond reducing chemical use: • There is less packaging waste. You’re not buying new bottles repeatedly. • Less expensive. Make the easy wood floor polish below and compare your cost versus a commercial product. Right away you’ve saved nearly $5. • Reduced or eliminated noxious smells. Natural cleaners smell better – or don’t smell at all. Yeah, vinegar is pretty gross – but adding a little lavender oil diffuses its scent. There are some core natural ingredients that may already be in your cupboard or that are easily accessible. Scan your shelves to see if you’re already armed to build a green cleaning arsenal.

vinegar:

This simple and all-purpo se ingredient can be used as a fabric softener in the rinse cyc le of your washing machine. Vinegar makes a great all-purpose cleaner and a great stain remover. Vinegar combined with baking sod a, makes a great foaming toilet cleane r. 24

FEED | W E L LFEDS AVAN N AH .CO M

ECO-FRIENDLY INGREDIENTS

Baking Soda:

Works as a mild abrasive, helping to gently scrub things that need to be scrubbed, but not borax: scratched. Baking soda also works A natural mineral, well to remove smelly odors. Baking soda also works to removes stains, but can be an irritant on skin, and shouldn and can be used to help soften ’t be ingested.

Borax can also be used to repel Cornstarch : insects, although ca d an re s oil s rb so Ab should be used ar a ound greases, making it pets and small ndry great help in the lau children. on room or for stains countertops.

essential oils:

Helps to add a ple asing scent and even sp ecific cleaning qualities such as antibacterial, degr easing, etc., to homemade cleaning solutions. Careful – a few dr ops is all you need!

lemons & lemon juice :

Great for scrubbing copper bottom pots. Lemon juice is a natural degreaser, which comes in handy with dishes.

hydrogen peroxide:

salt:

An abrasive solution for scrubbing. Salt also works to help polis h copper and silver. Burned coffee pot? Swirl salt and ice cubes in the pot and watch the burned goop disappear.

Can be used as a disinfectant. It also is one of the most effective blood stain removers. A friend won’t eat produce until she has rinsed it with a 10 percent hydrogen peroxide, 90 percent water mix. The veggies get a good scrubbing, then a clean water rinse before use.

OK, you have the basics. Now here are few home cleaning formulas to get you started:

DISINFECTANT ALL-PURPOSE SPRAY: Mix a few drops of natural soap, 2 cups water, and 15 drops each of tea tree and lavender essential oil (you can use just the one oil -- but 30 drops). The spray is suitable for cutting boards, counters, toilets, walls – virtually everything except glass, which will streak. Lavender and tea tree oil won’t kill every germ that comes into your house, but are known for antibacterial properties.

HOLD ON! WHAT’S WASHING SODA? Without getting all Mr. Science on you, washing soda is baking soda that has been heated for a sustained period of time. Heat converts the soda’s chemical composition and turns it into washing soda – the foundation of many homemade cleaners, including home laundry detergent. Scour the shelves if you will – or make it yourself:

HOMEMADE WASHING SODA

The difference between the two is obvious. Washing soda is grainy, baking soda is powdery. Washing soda is dull and opaque, baking soda is crystalized like salt and reflects light. Washing soda is separate grains, baking soda clumps together.

GREASY KITCHEN SPILLS: Dump salt directly on

Ingredients: Baking Soda 1. Fill a wide baking dish with baking soda. 2. Heat in the oven at 400 degrees until all the baking soda becomes washing soda. Occasionally mix it so that this process happens faster and more uniformly. 3. Use as needed!

DEGREASER

: Yuck! Knocking off cooking grease or oily stains is one of the most challenging household cleaning tasks. Reach for the white vinegar – the truly most versatile of the household cleaning ingredients. Mix a pinch of washing soda, a couple drops of natural soap and two tablespoons of vinegar into two cups of boiling water for a general degreaser. Or use plain white vinegar diluted with water in proportion to the toughness of the spot. White vinegar is the winning solution for crystal clear windows and shiny appliance surfaces.

top of the oil or grease. Let it sit for a few minutes to absorb. Then wipe up the mess and clean as normal.

DRAIN CLEANER:

Commercial drain cleaner is one of the most toxic chemicals you can have in your home. Drain traps in very drain helps reduce the need to deal with clogged drain but if you have a sluggish drain, pour a cup of white vinegar plus one cup baking soda into the drain. Let that sit for a few minutes (it will bubble). Flush with a teapot of boiling water.

SOAP SCUM REMOVAL:

Apply baking soda and scrub with a damp cloth or sponge. Tougher scum may require use of a bristle brush – be careful not to scratch the surface! For lighter soap scum, apply vinegar directly, left to sit and scrubbed down.

WOOD FLOOR POLISH:

Mix equal parts olive oil and vinegar. Apply a very thin coat and rub. Have fun – stand on your polishing clothes and “skate” around while doing your house work!

CHILDHOOD OBESITY PREVENTION & EDUCATION

Forsyth Park - Bandshell Area Just for Kids! For All Raffle

Written by Sandy Baker

I understand childhood obesity more than most people. I lived it. And I became one of those statistics— the obese adult who began as an overweight kid. I understand the judgments people make, like having to prove my intelligence more because of the stereotype that fat people are lazy, dumb and dirty. I understand being a teenage girl with no boyfriend, no hope of attending the prom, and not being able to wear the current teenage fashion. I had friends. I had a fun childhood and fun teenage years. They were just different. Mine were overshadowed by diet plans, trying to find clothes that fit, and discussions with doctors and my parents about what to do with me. When I was an teenager in the 1970s the obesity rate was 5 percent. I was one of only three obese students in my large urban high school. Everything was about fitting in and being the same as everyone else. And I wasn’t. Fast forward to an adult life of weight battles, overachievement, people pleasing and declining health.After 27 years of secret eating, binging and food addiction, I began relearning life coping skills and slowly began my psychological and emotional rebuilding. Another seven years later I finally had all the components together to successfully lose 125 pounds. Completely changing my lifestyle, eating habits, and giving up people pleasing and perfectionism, I continued to grow into my healthy self. I began thinking about what would have helped me get to this place sooner, like when I was a kid. 28

I found when facilitating weight loss support groups that the number one reason adults did not reach their goal weight was emotional or comfort eating. It seemed that instead of trying to correct years of dysfunctional food behavior in adults we should be teaching our children proper coping skills so they do not succumb to the same unhealthy behaviors.

After 27 years of secret eating, binging and food addiction, I began relearning life coping skills and slowly began my psychological and emotional rebuilding. Out of this Childhood Obesity Prevention + Education (COPE) was born. COPE is a non-profit organization with 501c3 status. COPE combats childhood obesity with a threefold approach – nutrition education, fitness and behavioral health. In my experience, behavioral health component is the most important and the most overlooked. As a child, teenager, and adult I had the proper nutrition at home and understood which foods were healthy. I attended fitness centers and exercise classes with my mother and later by myself or with friends—so why didn’t I lose weight? It’s because I had developed unhealthy coping skills for life that revolved around food.

Food for comfort, food for celebration, food to cheer me up, food to relieve stress, food for boredom; food became the answer for everything. As we develop emotionally and psychologically we attach memories with the food and people around us. When we want the comfort of a particular memory or person our instinct is to do that with the food associated with the memory.That is an unhealthy food behavior. We need to understand food is primarily to fuel our body. Occasional food treats are fine. But today’s society is confronted with a 30 percent childhood obesity rate—the result of no limits to our excess. We don’t talk to children about the consequences until it’s too late and bad habits are formed. Then we expect them to run around the block, eat carrots and lose weight. By that time, tastes have developed and indulgences have become the norm. To help children learn these concepts early, COPE has developed an after school program based on research and best practices. The program involves daily fitness, nutrition and decision making cognitive life skills and a parent education component. The program advances personal growth by identifying strengths and weaknesses and then focusing on developing healthier self-esteem, improved body image and personal nutrition and fitness goals. Program statistics show that 100 percent of the participants lose inches, increase fitness ability and strength, and improve nutritional choices.

Parents also report changes in how they shop and cook, as well as improvements in the family activity level. Many note improvements in their children’s attitudes as they go through “LEAN Kids COPE.” “LEAN Kids COPE” is free to families and paid by sponsors and donations. To raise funds and promote family health and activity we celebrate each April with our “Move Your Body to COPE” event. This year the date is Sunday, April 14, from 2-5 p.m. at the Forsyth Park band shell. Participants may register at www.copeforchange.org and begin sharing their personal fundraising link with friends to raise the most money possible for this worthy cause. Sandy Baker, founder and executive director of COPE Childhood Obesity Prevention + Education, is a certified Dr. Sears L.E.A.N. Health Coach and is a certified Weight Loss Support Coach through Bariatric Support Centers International. Sandy has a BA in Christian Psychology from Jacksonville Theological Seminary. Her twelve years of counseling experience under an ecclesiastical license helped her understand how a little bit of encouragement goes a long way in supporting positive change.

cash for trash by Rhonda Barlow, MPH, RD, LD, CLC When the “can is kicked down the road” to Hesse Elementary, the Hesse Bears will pick it up and turn it in for cash.

Since August of 2012, the PTA has raised more than $1900 from the recycling program alone – nearly double its original goal.

Three years ago Cindy Hudgins, then Vice President of the Hesse PTA, started a recycling program at the school. From the simple beginnings of recycling only aluminum cans and office paper, the school’s recycling program has grown to include drink/juice pouches, chip bags, ink cartridges, empty glue bottles, empty disposable tape dispensers and breakfast bar wrappers.

Current PTA President Debbie Hughes projects the final amount raised by the end of the 2012-2013 school year will exceed $5,000. So how do they do it? All students at Hess Elementary are given the opportunity to participate in the school’s fundraising recycling efforts by turning in recyclable items from their lunches every day and by collecting recyclable items from the community and home. During class time students are encouraged to place used paper in the blue recycle buckets located in each classroom or in the many large recycle bins located at key places around the school. Every Friday afternoon, the PTA Recycling Program Chair Staci Glazier, Hughes and a small number of students process and sort the week’s collected recyclable items.

On March 1st, the school’s phone book drive concluded with more than 3,000 phone books diverted from landfills. The school collected the most phone books of all the agencies that participated in the Keep Savannah Beautiful Campaign and were awarded $100 and a pizza party for the winning class.

This “trash” is not only being recycled into something else, it is generating cash for some those who could use it most, students in the public school system. Drink/juice pouches alone are worth two cents a pouch – and more than 3000 are collected every two weeks. The revenue collected from recycling exceeds funds raised from the traditional candy bar or cookie dough sale -- and does not make your waist line expand. If you would like to help Hesse School in its recycling efforts, drop off used office paper and aluminum cans in their outside recycle bins.

do one thing today for the good of your local food scene

mall actions will lead to great change within our local food systems. On the following page is a fun and simple tool you can use to change and increase your investment in our local food scene. “do one thing today cards” will give consumers the power to effect change.

he way that we produce, purchase and consume food has become wholly unsustainable. We rarely enjoy handcrafted items made with pride and care. We have little idea about the origins of our food, or who produces it. Our food has no history, thus no sense of place. As a result, significant levels of confusion and powerlessness arise concerning definitions of sustainable practices. Every individual has the power to do something about this. Originally developed as portable “do one thing today” cards, to help consumers become involved and invested in their local food scene, this representation of the cards, condenses the set, still allowing for portability. Each section of actions is followed by space for notes. You are encouraged to interact with the cards, carry them inside the magazine or rip them out. Each section of the cards lists an action to take. The action may be related to the way that you shop, dine out, cook, or think about food. They are meant to challenge your assumptions about food systems and encourage a local and sustainable model of eating. In order to be local, the actions are also malleable, feel free to adapt each task to your particular experience or lifestyle. Once a task is completed, I encourage you to take notes, reflect on how you felt about the results or whether you adapted the task.

This is one tool that exist as part of a larger project entitled seed till fork, which examines relationships between restaurants and farms. Several cards were created for different audiences. This set of “do one thing today” cards is geared to the consumer. The goal of seed till fork is to enhance education about local and sustainable food supplies. It creates a sense of investment in these supplies, insources from all actors involved, including the end consumer and stimulates the local food community in Savannah. Real change can result from reflecting on and internalizing the experience of moving through each task. The goal of the “do one thing today” is to move you toward making more sustainable and local food choices every day. -Continued on Next Page

Happy Earth Day! We made you a cake to celebrate! We love that Earth Day brings people together locally and globally. But a small reminder: There are still 364 more days in the year to incorporate eco-friendly methods into our lives like we have and are continually striving for here at Thrive. Little by little, we can make a big difference.

Now let’s get to the cake. I love this recipe! It’s a relatively healthier yet delicious dessert. It is a sweet treat but you can enjoy it in a variety of ways including vegan and reduced fat. For the reduced fat version, you can skip the cream cheese icing and eat the carrot cake as muffins or with a light glaze. Did you know that carrots are extremely rich in antioxidants and have cancer fighting properties? For the best local carrots in my opinion, look no further than Walker Farms in Sylvania, a certified organic farm. Her carrots are sweet, come in a rainbow of colors and should make some pretty cupcakes too! You can find her at the Forsyth Farmers Market each Saturday.

cream cheese icing 1 1/3 cup Cream Cheese (organic) 1 cup Butter, cut into cubes 2 cup Powdered Sugar 1 tsp. Vanilla Extract

directions variations

VEGAN

Blend first 2 ingredients in mixer with a paddle till smooth. Add sugar in two increments. Then vanilla, mix well, stopping to scrape the bowl.

carrot cupcakes (makes 24 cupcakes or 2 8” cakes) 3 cups Organic Grated Carrots 2 cups Flour 1 tsp. Cinnamon 1 tsp. Salt 1 tsp. Baking Soda 1 tsp. Baking Powder 4 Eggs 2 cups Sugar 3/4 cup Vegetable Oil 1 tsp. Vanilla Extract 1 cup Chopped Nuts & Raisins

directions

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Mix dry ingredients except sugar and carrots together in medium size mixing bowl. In a seperate larger mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, sugar, oil, carrots, and vanilla. Mix well! Add flour mixture and chopped nuts & raisins to wet mixture. Blend until just mixed. Line cupcake pans with cupcake liners and spoon combined mixture into cups until each is 3/4 full. Bake for 12 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool. Top with icing or glaze of your choice. Garnish with pea greens, serve, and enjoy!

Make it vegan! It’s easier than you think, and it tastes just as great! Use Egg Replacer instead of eggs, and Tofutti Cream Cheese and Earth Butter. All are available in local grocery stores.

CELEBRATE!
