In this episode of Eat. Drink. Think., host Amy O’Neill Houck talks with Michele Thorne, Executive Director of the Good Meat Project, whose work is dedicated to creating a more transparent and ethical food system.
Michele shares her journey and the mission of the Good Meat Project, explaining how the organization connects consumers, ranchers, butchers and chefs to build a stronger, more sustainable meat supply chain. The discussion unpacks the power of consumer choice and why buying as close to the source as possible is an effective way to know more about the qualities of not only the meat, but the people who raised and prepared it with care.
She offers insight into the work done to support a food culture that values the land, animals, and people, and why a foundation of shared resources and community is essential to the future of truly good meat. This conversation offers a taste of the change, and community, behind every bite.
