I'm very excited to find this blog. A slow food movement in New Zealand! I'm on the West Coast of the South Island, so not able to attend events, but I'll be watching this blog with interest. I'd already read the Monbiot article and found it interesting and convincing.
Hi Johanna, I was wondering what the new blog was that you were working on! Will add this to my feeds for updates. Off to read the article now.
