Eating and buying local: A new magazine explores local food sources as well as cuisine

EDIBLE INDY, a new quarterly covering the local food culture in and around Indianapolis, debuted in early June. Published by Edible Communities Inc., the magazine explores the area’s food economy and sustainable food sources, as well as the cuisine.

The goal of the magazine is to “connect consumers with family farmers, growers, chefs and food artisans of all kinds,” and is based on the belief that people care about where their food comes from. Articles include seasonal features, food traditions, profiles of local food artisans and growers, recipes and events.

This latest local publication is one of more than 60 produced by Edible Communities throughout North America. Helen Workman, helen@edibleindy.com, is editor-in-chief for the magazine. A digital edition of Edible Indy is available at the website, http://www.ediblecommunities.com/indy.
