Cowpooling - Emerging food trends
The New York Times wrote an article in yesterday’s paper about the emerging trend of home grown food, such as produce grown in the backyard. Companies will come to your house, plant and tend a garden and deliver the produce to your backstep for you every week. That’s my kind of service. I’ve noticed that there are two kinds of guys in the world. The guy that enjoys working in his yard, mowing it and tending it. And the guy that enjoys watching someone mow his lawn. I’m of the latter group. So this is pretty much right up my alley.
One offshoot of this trend is several people raising a cow together and then getting a divvied up share of the meat upon slaughtering. This is cleverly called, Cowpooling. True.
