On Mount Desert Island, Maine, winter can mean six months of isolation and tough times, as yearround residents hunker down through the cold season. Larry Stettner and Bill Morrison vowed to change that. In November 2009, the Common Good Soup Kitchen opened its doors to the public, offering free soup as well as live music and a place for locals to gather, interact, and help each other. In its first winter of operation, the Common Good served over 10,000 bowls of soup to the community. Run entirely by donations, grants, and volunteer labor, the caf also runs a distribution program to deliver soup to senior residences and others who cannot make it out to the caf.In Cooking for the Common Good, Stettner and Morrison argue that we need to radically rethink the concept of the soup kitchen, emphasizing true community building along with incorporating healthy and locally sourced food. The book includes a lively thirdperson narrative telling the story of how the Common Good Soup Kitchen was created; the authors unique cooking philosophy; some of their most popular soup and salad recipes; and a full appendix with resources and a sample grant application for others interested in starting their own soup kitchen.Today access to whole foods, local organic foods, and sustainable fisheries is more important than ever for our wellbeing. But, because of economic inequities, good whole food is once again hard to get. Organic foods are largely available to the wealthiest and most privileged among us. Let us break down the bastions and make natural, whole foodincluding organically based soupsfor everyone.from chapter 2, The Soup Manifesto
