 Joan Dye Gussow, chair of Just Food’s first board of directors, is one of the founding mothers of the local food movement. She believes that eating from close to home makes economic, ecologic, and gastronomic sense and sacrifices neither taste nor pleasure. Currently, Joan is the Mary Swartz Rose Professor Emerita of Nutrition and Education at Teacher’s College, Columbia University (NYC), where she formerly headed the Nutrition Education Department. The highly acclaimed nutritionist is author, coauthor or editor of a number of articles and several books. Her 2001 book, This Organic Life: Confessions of a Suburban Homesteader, is based on the lessons learned from decades of working toward growing her own.
