You can image my delight when I opened the New York Times magazine section this week and saw on the cover an article entitled Some of my Best Friends are Germs — written by none other than Michael Pollan. I’m kind of jealous — his articles get a lot more readership than mine…

Wisconsin farmer, Vernon Hershberger is facing criminal charges for feeding his community.  Vernon supplies wholesome food to a private food club of 200 members.  The outcome of his trial will set precedent for all food clubs around the country!
