Tim McDiarmid is part of a food revolution.
She?s helping us eat healthier. Better. More in tune with what food is meant to be: nourishing.
And it?s revolutionary because we?ve really screwing it up in the way we farm, consume and enjoy food. In our time of abundance, most of the food we eat is literally killing us.
Sure ? it?s a downer. But the upside is that Tim and other food revolutionaries are re-educating the population and going against the grain of cheap, fast and dangerous food.
?
Tim grew up in Canada in the middle of nowhere ? and her mom taught her that if you want good food ? you have to make it yourself.
Her family of six grew a huge outdoor organic garden and preserved their harvest for winter time eats.
Naturally ? you don?t escape this lifestyle unscathed.
Tim is the biggest food snob I know ? in the best possible way.
But being hyper tuned into what makes a fantastic meal is why she?s so darn brilliant at what she does.
We?ve been friends for 15 years and she?s always been ahead of the curve ? cooking ?healthy? and ?farm to table? before restaurants irreverently threw those words on menus and people started getting used to spending twenty dollars on a jar of pickles from the hipster food store.
Tim lived in NYC for two decades and got to eat and work her way through the most intense food scene in America. Obviously NYC can kick a passion for good food into high gear; there?s a never ending choice of great restaurants and creative peeps dishing out ridiculously stellar meals to the highly critical masses. Mediocre just doesn?t hold ground in NYC ? not like it would in a small town.
?
Because learning simple recipes can make your home life run smoother.
Because eating healthy is living well.
Because eating can be a celebration.
Because eating good stuff makes us feel good stuff.
Because putting real food in your body can spread through your home, your friends and your community. Revolutionary? Maybe. Life altering? Definitely.
?
From our gorgeous stone veranda in the Cinque Terre, Tim will be sharing the heart of what she knows. She?s gonna give you her best recipes, her un-fussy cooking tricks and her fly-by-the-seat-of-your pants entertaining style that will help you have more fun in the kitchen.
We want you to come home ? to your real life ? with the skills to cook healthy, effortless and beautiful food for you, your friends and your family.
Because revolutions always start somewhere.
