Traditional Food Swap

Traditional Food Swap The Traditional Food Swap in NYC -- where people can share real food: homemade, home-cultured, traditional preparations of local, organic and wild foods

What’s a Food Swap? A ‘Food Swap’ is a way for community members to swap specialties they prepare or grow with others who also have items to share. It is a way to share homemade, delicious food with each other as well as a way to lessen our food dollars and time in the kitchen. Swaps can also offer chefs a ‘test kitchen’ for new foods they consider bringing to market and so support our local foods

hed. Food swaps are a growing movement around the country helping us to return in part to a local barter system for local food. What’s different about the Traditional Food Swap? Not much and a lot depending on your perspective. We ask participants to put a few parameters around the sourcing and preparation of the foods. The Traditional Food Swap also includes swaps of homemade preparations of herbs, roots & spices, home cleaning products and pet foods as they also are part of a traditional home pantry. (Pease see below for more info about these.) The guidelines are not meant to be proscriptive but to inspire the community members to prepare artisanal foods, herbs and home products and enable those with particular food diets to participate.
