Welcome to Edible Allegheny, a magazine devoted to improving the quality of life in our region by bringing you important information about food. We believe that supporting the local agricultural community is a vital element in the future success of this region, and that eating healthy local food is a better option.

We are convinced that the area of the world in which we live is especially fortunate, with our vast water resources, our fertile soil, and our four distinct seasons. This region experiences optimal growing conditions, and we’re blessed with generations of farmers who love our land.

As a city, Pittsburgh has some of the most innovative environmental programs, ranging from our LEED-certified buildings to our well-trod trails. Our business communities and restaurant industries are putting a greater emphasis on local and organic food

Edible Allegheny readers are active consumers, passionate about local foods and sustainability, and lead healthy lifestyles.

Our readers care about the quality of their food and support local farmers markets, visit farm stands, grow their own produce, and frequent regional restaurants. Our readers are affluent, concerned, connected, environmentally conscious, and community-minded.
