Hello! Welcome to Goldbergs’ Local Foodcast, a miniseries about local food movement with a focus on St. Louis. We, Jonah Goldberg and Daniel Goldberg, are not closely related, and we are your hosts. Come listen, come learn, and enjoy!
How do we transform knowledge into practice? We cover takeaways from the previous episodes, and Jonah raps up. Thank you for listening!
Together we discuss the organic/GMO debate, land use, and practical ways forward towards a more sustainable future, with a few cautionary caveats.
From Missouri to Louisiana and back again, Danielle Meert of MOshrooms Regenerative Microfarm embodies the impact an individual can have. Her microfarming and composting work can save the environment and trans rights.
We dive into how capitalism impacts access to healthy food and wealth disparity. Why is healthy and accessible food so rare?
If you’re ever in St. Louis, we recommend visiting Mac’s Local Eats for some delicious burgers (and veggie patties), #RipFries, and more, all sourced locally. This episode is not sponsored; we just like the food.
We speak to our “professional” vegan friend, a Shamayim fellow, about the definition of veganism, cognitive dissonance, equity, and more, along with practicable advice for ethical eating.
Kirsten Detec, a farm educator we spoke to at Urban Harvest, contains vast knowledge about food systems, from processed foods and human health to zone systems and urban farming.
Who are we? Why are we doing this? What can you (the listener) expect to hear about over the course of this miniseries?
