Ah … food blogs. I admit it. I am an addict. I must subscribe to over a hundred food blogs. I love them. The ideas. The beautiful photography. The luscious recipes. More than that, though, I love that all these real food lovers have come together in a medium that can bring the real and traditional foods community together while simultaneously bringing awareness to the importance of real foods, traditional foods and sustainable agriculture.
Sure, we all know (or we all should know) Cheeseslave, Kelly the Kitchen Kop, Nourishing Gourmet and Food Renegade, but there’s some beautiful blogs out there that you should also visit. Many of these bloggers, however, go unappreciated and unrecognized for their work. Indeed, I’d have been likely to overlook them had they not been regular and active commenters at Nourished Kitchen or had they not linked to Nourished Kitchen. Check them out!

Great sites thanks for highlighting them.
Hi Jenny!
Thanks for posting my site amongst all these other terrific sites! It’s great to find new resources, perspectives, and information to build on future writing and knowledge. Cheers to you! Thanks much for the work you do on your resource. It’s greatly appreciated!
Thank you so much.
I am very very honored that you included me in this list, and I’m excited to take a look at the others. Your blog is a great inspiration to me as I am sure it is to alot of others.
I can’t believe you did this to me! I keep saying that I need to cut down on the number of blogs I read – and now I have to ADD seven more, lol.
These all look good. Thanks for showing us the way.
Lovely and wiley…you weren’t here at bedtime
All kidding aside, thank you for the link love. I started to go on a bit about why real food is important to me…but this is your blog (and a good one, too!) I used the handy cut and paste and will continue on a bit on why real food is so important to me there.
Thank you so much for the link and such a flattering description! I’ve been lax the last week because I was out of town visiting one of my farms, but once I get back into the swing of things, I have posts planned on the movie Food Inc, my trip to the farm, a ground beef stroganaff recipe, strawberry rhubarb muffins, an herb caper sauce, properly preparing grains, a rhubarb-apple crisp, and anything else I figure out to do with my latest farmers market haul.
So, PHEW! A lot of stuff to go over.
I’ll be adding any of the other blogs you featured that I don’t already subscribe to.
Thank you for letting us know about these bloggers…I’ll check them out

Edible Aria is already in my Google Reader and it’s always refreshing to read and learn from other bloggers so thank you for sharing Jenny. In my book, there’s always room for more! I will be sure to check them out.
Thanks Jenny! It is so helpful to have links to some great blogs – I am enjoying the new reading.
Thanks for posting about these great blogs! I’d managed to miss a few of these myself and am so glad to add more to list!
Thanks for the heads up! I will definitly check out these blogs!
Jenny, I appreciate being in the “should already know” list, that was so nice, and also, I didn’t know about East Kentucky Gal, I’m going to go check her out!
Have I raved lately about how much I love your colors and design on your site? Cause I feel like raving right now…
Kelly

Oh my! Thank you for including me! What a pleasant surprise!
You are extraordinarily generous, Jenny! Thank you!
Thanks for sharing these, it’s so encouraging to see lots of people eating real food and it’s always helpful to see how others do it.
