One of the biggest turnips I’ve ever seen…another reason to grow organic!
One of the biggest turnips I’ve ever seen…another reason to grow organic!
Come try Amanda Love’s cooking at the annual 2011 Texas Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association Conference in Kileen, TX Jan 28-30th.
Update:
This year was my 4th time(!) to cook for this annual conference promoting organic food production systems in Texas. It is always heart warming to see old familiar faces of farmers and gardeners that truly care about growing their food in an organic, sustainable way.
Cooking for this crowd has been one of the most fulfilling experiences of my life. To be amongst people that truly appreciate quality food and to get to cook with it too – wow, this is a very special experience. There is something very profound that happens when a group of people eat the same meal together and they know the cook loves them and is putting true love into their meal. To see the gratitude on peoples faces as they taste truly nourishing food prepared with love – it is hard to put words to. All I can say is this is what keeps me going back for more. Because it is a lot of hard work to compile all the food from different farmers for several hundred people for one big meal – not to mention to cook it all! But in the end, it is very rewarding.

Thank you, TOFGA, for inviting me back year after year to cook for this conference. May the next one be the best yet. Go Mesquite, 2012!
Amanda – thanks for the awesome food at TOFGA! You are amazing. That’s quite and accomplishment, to provide a high-quality meal to such a crowd, but you sure did it.
Cheers!
