Eat Local Calendars
Artist: Maria Schoettler
Her ‘Eat Local Food Calendar’ was born out of her own valiant, almost obsessive efforts to buy all of her produce locally from her neighborhood farmer’s market, a place where she feels very inspired by the colors and the tastes that surround her. To Maria, the weekly ritual of attending the farmer’s market is something she can feel good about, because it represents how even our small, seemingly simple efforts can enliven local economies and support a huge environmentally conscious cause. Maria is enthusiastic about the homespun, the handmade, family dinners, storytelling and connecting with people over the table and through her artwork and theirs. Maria is always looking for projects that will connect her with her immediate community or even new contingents in far-off places.
