Michelle,

We've just begun a sustainable agriculture program at Stratford Hall. We
have a blog at http://stratfordhallfarming.blogspot.com/ giving some
background information on the program, and we'll be updating the blog
with pictures, videos, and additional information as we develop the
program further.

If you contact me off-list at [log in to unmask], I can try to
answer your specific questions, or put you in touch with our executive
director, who is heading up this project.

Hope this helps!
Best,
Laura

Subject: [MUSEUM-L] Foodways programming

Hello all,

I'm working on a presentation about the contemporary interest in food
and sustainable agriculture and how museums are playing a part in
reviving food traditions. I'm looking for examples of museums,
particularly history museums, who have recently instituted a new food
program or expanded an existing one. Particular emphasis on heirloom
plants, heritage breeds, and regional food traditions and practices. 

Thank you for any information you can offer on what museums are doing
such programming!
