A new television series debuting on PBS this spring will take a closer look at the culture of rural America from a culinary perspective.
The American Farmland Trust recently announced that it will sponsor “America the Bountiful,” which will be presented through Capri Cafaro, television personality, cookbook author and podcast host.
“Today, much of food television focuses on celebrity chefs and restaurants from big cities,” the show’s website notes. “Our series shines a light on the vibrant, never-before-seen culinary stories hidden in rural spaces and small towns across America. The episodes will “explore the private and poignant chronicles of farmers, artisans, restaurateurs” and others through the exploration of their food and how it is produced.
AFT President and CEO John Piotti said the exhibit will succeed in a “committed and engaged environment of environmentalists, farmers and foodies from across the country. “
“We’re excited to magnify the stories of ‘Giving America’ with our supporters to raise awareness about the importance of farmland protection, healthy farming practices, and resilient food systems,” he said in a statement.
The AFT also believes the exhibit will lead to more national and local political debates related to those issues.
