MAD RIVER VALLEY

Localvore Project

Celebrating and supporting local food in the Mad River Valley - those who eat it and those who grow it - through education, community connections, and collective wisdom.

   

Don't give me 10% more in quantity, give me 10% more in quality.

George Schenk of American Flatbread in response to the food marketing gimmick of "Now you get 10% More for the same price!"
