How Sustainable is Your Table?
What's for dinner? We know that fresh food is better than frozen and that we need to choose food that hasn't traveled over 1,000 miles to arrive on our plate. Luckily, SustainableTable.org is here to help you on your quest to prepare and eat meals that are good for you and good for the environment. You can find stores near you that sell sustainable food, and even dig up some recipes that call for your newly procured goods. Issues of sustainability affect us in the kitchen, the garden, and nearly everywhere else. Learn today what it means to make your table sustainable.

In addition to eating sustainably (live in a a city - find an urban/community garden in your neighborhood!), use cloth napkins at the dinner table instead of paper (I even take one in my lunch bag with me everyday). Give each household member their own unique napkin ring, and then everyone can use their napkins a couple of times (unless they make a really big mess) before washing them (and drying them on your clothes line). Plus, cloth napkins make your table setup look classy!
