Welcome

Welcome to Upstate NY Edible & Sustainable. This is a blog for anyone interested in the growing community of growers, animal husbands, farmers, cheese makers, brew masters and the like that are populating the middle and upper counties of New York State. My name is Clement Coleman and I have been the Chef and Owner of The Rose and Kettle Restaurant for 7 years.



The Rose and Kettle is committed to a few simple principles: Great Food, Great Service, and growing the local agricultural community to source fine ingredients for our guests. Our blog has been a successful tool for communicating with the community, so I thought it would be a good experiment to create a general forum for friends and peers in the area whose interests overlap. Please comment and let me know who you'd like to hear from and what you would like to know.

Thanks. And thank you, Internet.
