Your Daily Thread is an online green lifestyle magazine for the Los Angeles community.  This hub connects environmentally relevant information with LA’s green tastemakers.  YDT recently redesigned the site, adding in-depth neighborhood green guides (issue one is devoted to Echo Park & Silver Lake) and episodes of YDTV like Green Your Closet and Drunken DIY Jamming. As it turns out, the two founders of YDT, Lauren and Tracy were not dancing around drunk on camera (though that would have been great), they were actually learning how to make brandied fig jam with Lauren’s Mom on a farm. Yeh, big difference. Anywho, it turns out making jam isn’t so hard after all, which is actually very exciting!

The two ladies behind the drunken jam ruse of yesteryarn recently spoke about their revamp of YDT. “Oftentimes we don’t realize what great resources we have right in our own backyard, so we’re thrilled to be able to provide this service to our community,” states Lauren (whose mother’s “backyard” is actually an orchard and goat farm.) Tracy went on, “We’re excited to bring more detailed coverage to the spread out and often isolated neighborhoods of Los Angeles.” Amen to that, sister.

It turns out these blossoming green media moguls at Your Daily Thread will soon be expanding beyond the confines of LA to other major cities like New York, Chicago and San Francisco.  In the meantime, look out for YDT’s green holiday guide and more episodes of Lauren and Tracy getting their eco-Angeleno on.
