Living in Vancouver can make even the most fervently adventurous gastronomes among us a little myopic. We’re pretty well spoiled in this little corner of the world, and so house proud that we don’t always look at the rest of our own country with the same enthusiasm. Local food lovers Lindsay Anderson and Dana VanVeller are looking to best that affliction. They are currently raising money to go on a cross-country road trip to document and share their passion for Canadian food culture, as if it were an actual thing and not a disparate collection of tasty bits over the hills and far away. Their moveable FEAST: An Edible Road Trip sounds awesome:

An Edible Road Trip is an entertaining, ambitious and unpretentious storytelling initiative, a curious and reflective foray into the world of Canadian food culture. Through FEAST, we seek to celebrate Canadians who contribute to a more vibrant food system in our country, and feature many regional foods grown and/or produced in Canada. FEAST will also highlight issues of food security, exploring some of the difficulties within our food systems and the impacts these can have. In everything we do, we seek to be celebratory, thoughtful, fun, and engaging, and sincerely hope you’ll learn along with us.

They have the whole trip mapped out, and it looks pretty damn thorough. We totally wish we were going with them, but keen just the same to follow along via their Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook accounts. Check out their indiegogo page here and maybe lend them a hand. Support has already been pouring in. At the time of writing, people who are excited about what Lindsay and Dana might find have pitched in $5,590 toward their $30,000 goal, and they have 28 days left to make up the difference.
