Barbara Kingsolver

Barbara Kingsolver is a great storyteller. This is her story of her family’s experiences growing their own food and eating locally for one year, building relationships with others who grew what they could not. The story includes her husband and daughter’s perspective in alternating chapters and focuses on fundamental skills. If we had to, could we feed ourselves? This book has become a beacon for the Eat Local movement as an example of how with dedication, planning and sacrifice it can be done. We can rely on each other again.
