Surprise Surprize…
Took me long enough, eh?
We have already received some fantastic essays, but are hoping to see a lot more over the next week as we approach the deadline- Friday, March 12.
If you have been holding out to hear about what kinds of prizes we are offering, please allow me the pleasure of introducing our great sponsors and prizes:
$100 Gift certificate to Grange Kitchen&Bar
Chef Brandon Johns of Grange Kitchen&Bar makes a commitment to serving fresh, local, and sustainable food and let me say, the difference in quality is obvious. I ate at Grange during restaurant week, and can’t think of many meals I’d place above that dining experience. If you frequent the Kerrytown Farmer’s Market you’ve probably crossed paths with Chef Johns while seeking out the best ingredients grown on family farms from right in our community.
$25 Gift certificates to Silvio’s Organic Pizza
If you haven’t had a chance to try a slice of Silvio’s Organic Pizza, take your next lunch break at this great pizzeria right on North U. Silvio says it best, “At Silvio’s, we use organic ingredients because we value health… ours, yours, and the health of our planet.”
Tickets to see Michael Pollan speak at MSU on April 12th
An excellent opportunity to hear Pollan, stalwart of the burgeoning movement emphasizing real food, speak live. Event details: WorldView Lecture Series: Michael Pollan
Publication in an issue of Consider
If your essay presents a compelling argument for a manner of eating that you feel is right, you might be published in Consider, a “non-partisan, non-profit publication operated by students at the University of Michigan. Consider’s purpose is to provide an open forum for discussion of significant issues of campus, community and national interest.”
