RWU Celebrates Local Food Community with Annual Eat Local Challenge

Today, the University joins together to celebrate the Annual Eat Local Challenge – a day on which the campus community comes together to sample farm-fresh foods at the outdoor farmer’s market and feast on regionally authentic dishes in the dining commons, all to celebrate the importance of environmentally responsible food sourcing.

For this year’s Eat Local Challenge, Chef de Cuisine Jon Cambra will highlight Rhode Island’s best with dishes – grilled swordfish kabobs, lobster sliders, braised beef pot roast and scallop ceviche, among other menu items. The dining commons will also feature a chilled raw bar featuring littleneck clams, onset oysters and east beach blond oysters. Other specialty dishes will include seaweed salad, potato leek soup and eggplant roulades with autumn squash and goat cheese. All of the ingredients are harvesting within 150 miles of the campus.

The Eat Local Challenge is in its 11th year and was created in 1999 when Bon Appétit launched its Farm to Fork program, in which all Bon Appétit chefs have been required to source at least 20 percent of their ingredients from small, owner-operated farms within that radius.

RWU is committed to sourcing a majority of its fresh ingredients from local farms, fisherman and artisans throughout the year. From eggs to potatoes to dairy, many food items come directly from farms in Rhode Island or Southern New England including Little Rhody Farms in Foster and Rhody Fresh in Hope. Approximately 80 percent of the fresh seafood served on campus is exclusively sourced from New England waters and purchased fresh daily from The Foley Fish company in New Bedford; 90 percent of the bread on campus is made locally at Homestead Bakery in East Providence or Calise Bakery in Lincoln, among other local bakeries.

“I’ve participated in nine Eat Local Challenges, yet each menu always ends up being very different as we get inspired to raise the bar on just how local we can go,” says General Manager, James Gubata. “I’m very excited to host our farmer’s market today too.  A few of our farm-to-fork partners join us for the day and get to chat about what they harvest and create with our guests.”

Last year, in honor of the Farm to Fork program’s 15th anniversary, Bon Appétit decided to give something back, from “Fork to Farm.” The company gave away $50,000 worth of grants to local farmers, fishermen, and foodcrafters across the country to help them grow their businesses. The 10 “Fork to Farm” grant recipients were selected from 25 finalists by RWU and other guests and Bon Appétit teams on Eat Local Challenge Day 2014, with more than 26,000 people casting votes. A year later, those small grants have had a big impact for these small farms and food businesses.

On Eat Local Challenge Day, in addition to the all-local meal, the campus community will also get short updates on the projects of their two regional grant winners; they can follow links to read more on the Bon Appétit blog. Local farmers Matt Couzens of Horse Listeners Orchard will be on hand to offer samples and talk to guests about where their food comes from.

 


Cookbook Author to Visit RI Farmers Markets

Farm Fresh Rhode Island is excited to host Leanne Brown author of GOOD AND CHEAP: EAT WELL ON $4/DAY at two RI farmers markets on Thursday, October 8th.  Brown, recently named one of Forbes 30 under 30 for 2015, will be visiting the West Warwick Farmers Market and the Armory Farmers Market as part of her 2015 tour.

GOOD AND CHEAP: EAT WELL ON $4/DAY (Workman; July 14, 2015; $16.95) is a cookbook like no other, demonstrating why kitchen skill, not budget, is the key to great food. GOOD AND CHEAP is not a challenge to live on so little—it’s a resource for those who face this reality, or anyone in need of stretching a tight budget. It teaches a general strategy, and shares flexible, approachable recipes—from mains like Vegetable Jambalaya, Broiled Tilapia with Lime, and Spicy Pulled Pork, to sides and snacks like Green Chile and Cheddar Quesadillas and Broiled Eggplant Salad—even drinks and desserts, like Watermelon Smoothies and Peach Coffee Cake.

In addition to sharing tasty, nutritious recipes that maximize every ingredient and use economical cooking methods, Brown gives tips on shopping, setting up a basic pantry, mastering staples, and even repurposing last night’s dinner. One page, titled “Leftovers,” offers tips on the myriad ways to make good use of old meals, like turning almost anything into a sandwich, or putting the fixings from last night on top of toast, in a wrap, or on a pizza. Eating well on $4 a day also requires a stocked pantry reserves like garlic, canned vegetables, and dried beans can go a long way towards flavor.  GOOD AND CHEAP is more than a book of recipes. It is a book of ideas, made to prove that cooking has a powerfully positive effect.

Leanne will be at the West Warwick Farmers Market, located in the parking lot of Thundermist Health Center at 180 Providence Street, from 3:00-4:15pm.  Her visit to the West Warwick market will include a live cooking demonstration, free book giveaways and book signings.  Following her stop in West Warwick, Leanne will visit the Armory Farmers Market, located at Dexter Park in Providence, from 5-6pm.  Leanne will be joining Farm Fresh RI’s nutrition education program Healthy Foods, Healthy Families which will be featuring free samples of recipes from GOOD AND CHEAP.

These two special events are made possible by the partnership between Farm Fresh RI, Thundermist Health Center, and Neighborhood Health Plan of RI.  For more information on Leanne Brown’s tour visit http://www.leannebrown.com/events.

News Bites: Senator Reed Helps Launch Senior Nutrition Initiative, Hope & Main Schoolyard Market, Rhode Island Named #1 Food-Friendly State

Sen. Reed, RI Community Food Bank, USDA & RI Division of Elderly Affairs to Launch New Food Assistance Program for Seniors

Commodity Supplemental Food Program will help provide low-income seniors with monthly food boxes containing items like cereal, fruits and vegetables, pasta, and peanut butter

Rhode Island Community Food Bank

In an effort to help end senior hunger, U.S. Senator Jack Reed will join representatives from the Rhode Island Community Food Bank, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), and the Rhode Island Division of Elderly Affairs on Monday, May 18th at 1:00 p.m. at the Food Bank to launch a new senior nutrition initiative in the state, the Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP).

The partnership between USDA’s Food and Nutrition Service (FNS), the RI Division of Elderly Affairs, and the Rhode Island Community Food Bank – made possible through a legislative boost from Senator Reed — will help the Food Bank distribute boxes of nutritious USDA commodities on a monthly basis to seniors in need as part of the federally-funded CSFP, which provides monthly food assistance specifically targeted to low-income seniors.

The contents of the box will change each month, based on what is available through the USDA, but will include a variety of canned vegetables and fruit, beans, cereal, pasta, rice, and other seasonal items. The food package provided by CSFP is intended to supplement the diet of seniors, providing healthy options to help seniors meet their dietary needs for essential nutrients like protein, calcium, potassium, magnesium, and fiber.

Eligibility for the food boxes is based on income and age. Recipients must be at least 60 years old and their monthly income must be less than 130% of the Federal Poverty Guideline (not exceeding $1,245 per month if single or $1,681 per month if married).

Senator Reed, a senior member of the Senate Appropriations Committee, worked at the federal level to successfully insert language into the Fiscal Year 2015 Agriculture Appropriations bill making it possible for Rhode Island to start participating in CSFP, along with six other states that did not have the program. He also secured over $100,000 in federal funding to help launch the program.

In 2013, the Rhode Island Community Food Bank distributed 9.9 million pounds of food, and each month more than 63,000 Rhode Islanders seek food assistance. According to the National Foundation to End Senior Hunger, one out of eight Rhode Island seniors faced the threat of hunger in 2013.

“This is a proven, effective program that makes it easier for hungry seniors to get some extra nutritional assistance. I am pleased to help bring this program to Rhode Island. And I appreciate the hard work of the Rhode Island Division of Elderly Affairs and Andrew Schiff and his team at the Rhode Island Community Food Bank for playing critical roles in establishing it and getting it up and running. The Food Bank has already begun a successful senior food box pilot program. They do an outstanding job of distributing food and serving people with respect and dignity,” said Senator Reed, Reed who helped appropriate $211.5 million in FY 2015 for CSFP nationwide. This funding will support over 600,000 caseload slots in participating states and more than $44 million in state administrative grants. In FY 2015, Rhode Island has been allocated 2,000 caseload slots and will receive an estimated $110,669 in administrative grant funding to carry out the program.

“At the Food Bank, twenty percent of the 63,000 people we serve each month are over 60 years old,” said Andrew Schiff. “Thanks to Senator Reed’s efforts, the CSFP program has been expanded to include Rhode Island and six other states. This funding will allow us to partner with the Division of Elderly Affairs and the USDA to provide this vulnerable population with healthy food and nutrition education to help them remain independent and healthy.”

“The U.S. Department of Agriculture is honored that Rhode Island will be participating in the Commodity Supplemental Food Program,” said Kurt Messner, acting regional administrator for the USDA Food and Nutrition Service. “This federal nutrition program strives to improve health by supplementing seniors’ diets with nutritious USDA commodity foods. Once enrolled, eligible seniors will receive a box of nutritionally balanced supplemental food every month.”

The Rhode Island Division of Elderly Affairs will help to facilitate and raise awareness about the program.

The USDA commodity foods included in the food boxes are all U.S. grown and produced products. While the cost to the USDA to provide the food package is about $20 per month, the average retail value of the package provided to seniors often exceeds $50 per month.


Schoolyard Market Launches July 19

Hope & MainHope & Main is launching “Schoolyard Market” Sunday afternoons July 19 through September 27, 2015, transforming a former playground in a 100­-year-­old school into a uniquely interactive food experience. The market will feature a wide variety of vendors including farmers, fishermen, and Hope & Main culinary artisans. Workshops and how-to demonstrations for adults and children will be offered each week on nutrition, food preparation, urban gardening, and more.

Schoolyard Market will provide a highly interactive experience, connecting eaters with farmers and makers. “Food is a relationship that goes so much deeper than reading a label in a supermarket,” said Hope & Main Founder, Lisa Raiola. “We want to share the fascinating story of the origin and production of the food we eat everyday.”

The market will be dedicated to educating the community about cultivated, caught, and crafted in Rhode Island ­­ from growing to production to distribution­­ and enabling eaters to better understand and manage their personal relationship to local food.

Each week Schoolyard Market will offer free themed workshops for adults and children on topics such as fermentation; raising backyard chickens; home pickling; bee education and honey making; bread baking; solar and renewable energy demonstrations; composting and more. Families can also enjoy live music and other performances. “We want to stir up important conversations about food and reconnect with our community, our food, and our planet,” said Hope & Main Community Education and Outreach Director, Bleu Grijalva.

Cooking demonstrations with some of the region’s pre­eminent chefs will also be offered. For example, Chef Jonathan Cambra from Eating with the Ecosystem, a non­profit that promotes a place­based approach to sustainable seafood, will demonstrate how to prepare some atypical fare featuring catch that is abundant in Rhode Island waters such as razor clams, scup and slipper limpets. Schoolyard Market will also collect food waste through a program managed by Leo Pollock, President of the Compost Plant. Market­goers can learn the basics of composting and will be given receptacles for at­-home use that they can bring to Schoolyard Market on a weekly basis.

The Community Table will feature a different local non profit each week to spread the word about their mission and upcoming activities. Schoolyard Market plans to accept WIC, SNAP, and Senior Coupons.

Retale’s America’s Top 10 Food-Friendly States

“Rhode Island is the food-friendly powerhouse in these fifty states – and for good reason. This pint-sized non-island is stocked with top-tier, flavorful foods – many of which are “all their own” in the same way New Orleans claims beignets and Kentucky claims fried chicken. For one: Rhode Island has “Stuffies” (baked clams stuffed with herbs, mollusc, chourico sausage, and peppers), “Donut Cake,” coffee milk , Awful Awfuls, and Del’s lemonade.

“Little Rhody” offers the most total restaurants per one million inhabitants in the U.S. Further, they have the most snack bars per one million inhabitants, and they hold the eighth place in “best access to food,” meaning that if people really want a “Stuffie,” they’re likely to find one not too far from home. The Ocean State is also the number nine best state for Farmer’s Markets, where seafood, vegetables, and RI classics abound.”
