After three weeks of sleeping in tents, hotels, motels, and spare bedrooms, we're back in Chicago. We flew in from Seattle last night, and we plan to stay put for a couple of weeks in order to regroup and sort out the many hours of video footage we recorded while in California, Oregon and Washington.

Don't stay away though -- we'll be posting new photos and videos from our journey in the coming days, and we'll continue to report on new developments in sustainable food.

It feels good to sleep at home, but we're itching to hit the road again. If you've got any suggestions on people and places we should visit in upcoming tours, please submit them to the community map. Thanks to everyone who made the Kickoff Tour possible!
