Flow begins at the edge of your comfort zone.

As we enter the season of rest, there is much to test our comfort zones including the winter weather that has arrived after a season of record-breaking highs and lows — evidence of a changing climate as well as the need to adapt and change.

We could use some lighthearted distractions these days. In the spirit of both fun and innovation, the new winter issue pays tribute to women who recognized an opportunity and transformed seemingly ordinary ideas into something extraordinary—a simple peanut butter and jelly sandwich elevated to gourmet status, a bookshop filled to the brim with cookbooks and culinary delights, and a toddler’s snack packed with nutrients and tastes for developing young palates.

We've got the flavors of summer camp—chocolate, marshmallow and graham crackers—adapted into comfort treats for winter. There's even a s’more appetizer wrapped in bacon! New contributor Carrie Swanson wraps up this issue with a variation on the standard holiday favorite, thumbprints, adding chocolate, espresso and peppermint to create a Christmas cookie reminiscent of a warm mug of peppermint mocha.

Enjoy this last issue of 2024 as you prepare for winter holidays and the long months of shorter days. We’ll be back in March.

There is something about fall that incites wanderlust and the desire to be outside—to drink in the crisp air and savor the scents of ripening grapes and apples, to feel and hear the snap of leaves underfoot. The explosion of colors, fragrances and textures offers food for all of the senses. This season, awaken your senses along the trails of the greater Western New York region, from the Erie Canal bikeway to the pathways and beaches of Presque Isle State Park, exploring the region through nature, art, food, wine and craft beverages.

Inspired by local growers, we explore the suppliers of our regional food system in the new summer issue. In “The Hands that Feed Us”, we talked with wholesale cooperative Eden Valley Growers as well as the owners of Abers Acres, an organic family farm in Kennedy. The region’s largest organic farm—Thorpe’s Organic Family Farm—is also featured, along with Grandma Stage’s Peaches, a small family farm in North East, PA. The dedication, resilience and kindness of these families who nurture the crops that feed us year after year, generation to generation stands out as a common theme. They are the real story behind our local food system.

Spring is the season for new beginnings—a time to reset. It calls for patience, watching for the days to grow longer, the seeds to stir and roots to grow. This year, in particular, we are especially keen on the returning light as we anticipate a darkening shroud as the entire region prepares for the 2024 solar eclipse.

In this issue we pay homage to the sun and the moon with stories of growing and healing as well as light and shadow. Nicole Capozziello talks with Andrea Neidrauer from Terra House in Akron, NY, about her path to feeding others. Donna De Palma introduces us to a herd of therapy goats, and Brett Llenos Smith gives us a primer on indoor growing.
