Day Minus 3 until we begin our Food Stamp Challenge in response to the US Senate's defeat of The 2013 Farm Bill and cutting funding for the SNAP (Food Stamps) Program. For more information on Hunger in America and multiple viewpoints about The 2013 Farm Bill (which includes a lot more than just the SNAP program), please visit this web site whose organization is headed by Chef and Activist Michel Nischan
Wholesome Wave
No Kid Hungry
Note that during our challenge from July 1 through July 6 (including the highly celebrated 4th of July), we will be consuming only locally sourced or Fresh ingredients and survive on $6.67 per day. And...be without alcohol.
Please look for our daily posts and should you be so inclined to join us during part or even the whole period, please feel free to share your experiences here.
By the way, we did this last year during Hunger Action Month and here is a one-page "blog" of our daily experience:
