O. K. I watched this because of Zooey. People can be actors and have a second love. Her second love in this case is growing organic vegetables. She even became a vegetarian herself.
However, the program reminded me of those infomercials where everything goes wrong if you do not use their product. It was probably meant to be that way. She talks with farmers, nutritionists, and even food historians.
It is a tad hard to be objective when I too have a propensity to eat organic and local. But this series is mostly Zooey saying "yum, yum."
Too bad it ended with just 5 episodes.
