Lower Burnside has become a dining and bar mecca, said Jupiter Hotel co-owner Tod Breslau. Since we opened the hotel 5 years ago, the neighborhood has seen dozens of amazing bistros, cafes, and nationally recognized restaurants open, as well as a series of boutique distilleries that are producing world class spirits and liqueurs. The area teems with culinary artists and a level of independent spirit that needs to be celebrated.

About Ecotrust and the Food and Farms Program
Ecotrusts mission is to inspire fresh thinking that creates social equity, economic opportunity, and environmental well-being. The Food and Farms program at Ecotrust endeavors to make sustainability the underlying value of the mainstream food system; the norm, not the exception. In close collaboration with a diverse coalition of project partners, Ecotrust works on a wide-range of initiatives to promote the Farm to School program that enables schools to feature locally sourced products in their cafeterias, incorporate nutrition-based curriculum in all academic disciplines, and provide students with experiential agriculture and food-based learning opportunities, from farm visits to gardening, cooking, composting, and recycling. Our approach is multifaceted and includes: combating obesity, hunger, and global climate change; supporting Pacific Northwest farmers and food processors, both big and small; and enhancing regional economic development and community food security. We work at the local, state, and regional levels. http://www.ecotrust.org/farmtoschool/
