A Chef's Table: August 6, 2009

Sometimes food is more than a meal... it can be a way to build community or improve life. Today, we'll use food as way to do good - from reducing the carbon footprint of our kitchens to building a charitable business. We'll hear about some pitfalls on the road to starting a philanthropic cookie company. Later, we'll talk to Andrea Reusing - she's earned the title of one of America's best green chefs. And did you know the latest new trend for brides has nothing to do with gowns? It's all about the 100 mile localvore wedding. Plus, the chocolate bar that saved the rainforest and kitchens go green - but we don't mean avocado appliances! [Broadcast Date: August 6, 2009]
