Food Font - 51 backers and 5 days to go
Hello,
Thanks to everyone who has backed the project and is helping to spread the word out about Food Font. I have been continuing to promote the project and have met some great people and made some interesting connections for the project.
This past Saturday Food Font was at Gordon Square Farmer's Market in Cleveland, OH. The mood was relaxed and it was hot, but people had a great time making letters out of food from two local farms. We made the first alphabet that can be used for English as well as Spanish.
We used the Spanish alphabet (alfabeto Espanol) - for the event - so there were more letters to make. Some of the letters had accents on them, and there also was some extra punctuation marks to make. I got a chance to eat a really good tamale, and meet the other farmers and vendors at the market.
The vegetables were from:
GGG (A guy, a girl, and a garden) – Tomatoes, kale, garlic, beans
Maggie’s Farm – Squash, cucumber, eggplant.
One exciting development for the project is that some student teachers will be doing the Food font activity in some Cleveland schools. The student teachers are part of a class at the Cleveland Institute of Art, and I will be doing the first "Food Font Workshop for Teachers" of how to do the Food Font activity in the classroom. It will be exciting to see the project being done with students and used in the classroom this Fall.
Go Food Font!
Thanks for the support,
Kristen Baumlier
