What is Cultivating Conscience?

I'd be better serving you if I let my wife answer this question.

In the simplest form, Cultivating Conscience is a blog about two young-ish Ballard residents (Chad and Justine Edge), trying their damndest to to a little bit better in their food consumption than they were yesterday.
What that means to me (Chad) is we're trying to lower our food-miles1 by buying more locally-grown food as well as canning, dehydrating and/or growing whatever we can in order to reduce the distance our food supply has to travel before it hits our bellies.

1. Food-miles, what a great statement. I'll write a definition and put up some links to our reason for using this term a little later
