Diane Conners writes about how community, in the form of an experienced neighbor, transformed her early gardening efforts in Gardens Fed by Community. And now we have a chance to explore and foster that connection in northwest Michigan this Sunday afternoon. "The Promise of Gardens: How Gardens Build Community, Feed Us All and Reconnect Us to Nature," features award-winning author Eric Toensmeier. Attendees can hare ideas and resources during a visioning session, and connect with neighbors. A community gardens panel and group discussion will feature people who are starting or dreaming of garden projects in Benzie, Leelanau, Grand Traverse, Kalkaska, Antrim, Wexford and Missaukee counties. The event is free and runs from 12:30 to 4:30 at the Traverse Area District Library, 610 Woodmere, Traverse City.

Here is my recipe for granola. I tried to get close to the stuff they have at the Cherry Street Market in Kalkaska. I didn't get close, but this is a different style from that. I don't use nuts or seeds and I use blueberry flavored syrup. I give it away as holiday gifts and everyone loves it.

If a chef executes a perfect consomme and it's not judged by three wildly disparate members of unrelated media sources on network television, does it still count?

"Thanksgiving is a Riesling holiday because of the range of sweet and dry levels, friendly prices and compatibility with roast turkey," writes Detroit News columnist Sandra Silfven. "And, thankfully, there is no shortage of choices with Michigan labels on them." Plenty to choose from here in Northern Michigan!
