Supporting local farmers and producers

[Liza]

Amanda,

Many thanks for joining us here for this Q&A. Many thanks, too, for the article in today's Times, linked here: http://www.nytimes.com/2003/01/29/dining/29MEAT.html

It's very helpful to see an article that is supportive of small, local producers. Are you finding your readers to be more receptive to this kind of information?

liza, hi. the readership of the dining section is very sophisticated and well informed, so i think they're more than receptive to such subjects. they keep us on our toes.

already today i've received emails from readers who have bought meats from these farms.
