Barbara Kingsolver on Eating Local

Listen Tuesday, May. 1, 2007 at 1:25 p.m. in Environment

Fiction fans may know Barbara Kingsolver for best-sellers like "Animal Dreams" and "The Poisonwood Bible". But she's also a trained biologist, dedicated to understanding the human relationship with our environment. She joins Kojo to reflect on the year her family vowed to eat only locally-produced food, and ended up learning a lot about flowering peanut plants, turkey mating, and themselves.
