So one morning I decided it would be interesting to reach out to Governor Corzine's cabinet members -- one at a time -- and connect them to the Blue Jersey community.

Being a huge fan of our state's farmers market culture, I was particularly keen to chat with our Secretary of Agriculture Charles Kuperus.  I thought it would be timely to discuss issues including: locally grown goodies, "food miles," environmental stewardship, agri-economics, green energy and more.

I will be editing the ~20 minute interview for your videoblogging consumption.  Hopefully by tomorrow morning.  I am convinced that you will find Sec. Kuperus' messge  to be a compelling one.  Frankly it's hard to imagine a more passionate spokesman for the cause.  I can't wait to share this with you guys, but in the meantime, here's a little lighthearted nugget to chew on.
