Some conversation starters:
Dan Barber’s Op-Ed on small farms. (NY Times.)
Adam Platt on the Hudson Valley food with Italian influences at Olana in the city. (NY mag.)
A blog I just discovered over the weekend discusses Hudson Valley wines: The Wine Goddess.
(BTW, one of you sent me a link to your blog — I remember one post was about tipping in cash — and I accidentally deleted the e-mail. Please send again and I will add you to my blogroll.)
Other blogs on the blogroll include:
Westchester Magazine’s Eater

Explore and enjoy! And let me know if I’m missing any good local links.
