Glaci3r.com and Taste3

This blog has been picked up by Glaci3r.com's feeds page. Glaci3r is an environmental news and blog aggregator, and Organic Confidential is in some great company there. Go take a look.

I have to admit I was surprised, since I've only posted a few times this year on this site (there is much more on sustainable textiles and apparel, as well as the Slow Cloth concept, on my textile art, craft and culture blog). I'm less involved in the organic foods industry this year, so I don't even know all the current "confidential" information (I do, however, know where many of the bodies are buried).

So, hello to new readers; please have a look through the archives while I figure out if I want to rebirth this blog and write new regular posts. If so, posts will likely be less industry-related and broader in focus, and that's probably a good thing. Let me know what you'd like to hear about from me. And yes, I'm busy freelancing and consulting, and also looking for a job.

In other great food-related news, I've been offered a fellowship to attend the Taste3 conference next month. This stellar conference on food, wine and art takes place at the Copia center in Napa, and is modeled after the TED conference in that it brings unusual and innovative leaders from disparate backgrounds together to exchange and develop ideas, conversations and connections. All this in the spectacular setting of Copia. I'm very interested in the links between art and agriculture, and this is an exciting opportunity.
