Everything & the Kitchen Sink: Edition 02
EDITION 02
Hello again! February started off on a high note when our favorite noble creature, the groundhog, predicted an early spring. For people like us who are chomping at the bit for green grass and spring chores – Phil has won MVP in our book. In the meantime – here are a few things to keep you entertained while we wait for spring’s arrival.
TO READ:
- That’s Miss Breaux Bridge Crawfish to you. In Louisiana, agriculture pageant contests carry their stories and education of generations-old crops and exports.
- Out of the potato famine, the first humanitarian mission emerged. The Globe details Captain Robert Bennet Forbes’ journey to bring relief to Ireland.
- The OG Dunks. No – not that one. Your favorite 90’s snack is coming back to a grocery shelf near you.
TO TASTE:
- Our team can’t get enough of this Texas Beef Brisket Chili. Simple enough to throw together with leftover brisket, and deserving of a highly-sought after two thumbs up from our Strategic Operations Lead.
- A whiskey – hold the whiskey. As synthetic food products abound, would you venture into lab born libations?
- We have been introduced to this Pork Egg Roll in a bowl, and can confirm it’s one of the best uses for our ground pork.
TO LISTEN:
- Georgian Jamon. We always appreciate a good conversation with good company – here’s an episode of America’s Test Kitchen’s Proof that encompasses just that in their chat with Will Harris of White Oak Pastures.
- Lighten up your commute with an episode of The Sporkful. From comedians’ experiences with food to a deep dive into the political corn dog – this one definitely makes the standstill a little more enjoyable.
Until next time!
All of us at Walden

Our 2025 Impact Report: What Building a Better Meat System Actually Looks Like
Walden Local’s 2025 Impact Report details how regenerative farming delivers real results—for farmers, land, animals, and families. In 2025, Walden supported over 24,000 households, managed more than 28,000 regenerative acres, paid farmers over 3× the commodity rate, donated 37,000+ pounds of food, and produced meat with significantly better nutrition. Read the full report to see how regenerative meat, farmer-first economics, and transparent standards are building a better food system.
Why Walden Members Matter—From a Farmer Who Lives This Every Day
When farmers know that there is a market that will support regenerative production—not just philosophically, but economically—they are far more willing to step away from systems that no longer serve them or the land. When consumers consistently choose food that reflects their values, they help make those transitions possible.
