RECIPES AND STORIES TO NOURISH AND INSPIRE

We need to view food as something important again, worth taking the time to seek out and to cook. I'm eager to try the recipes in Farmstead Chef ― they promise a taste at once refreshing and deeply hopeful. ― Bill McKibben, author of Eaarth and The End of Nature

Rediscover homegrown and homemade cooking, preserving the harvest, stocking the pantry and building local community around your kitchen table. Join Lisa Kivirist and John Ivanko as they launch a return to our roots of independence, self-sufficiency and frugality, blended with the spice of modern living for the modern kitchen gardener, urban homesteader and homestead cook in all of us.

From mouth-watering breakfasts to delectable desserts, Farmstead Chef showcases the creative and budget-friendly side to eating lower on the food chain more often while taking responsibility for the food we put into our bodies – by growing it, savoring it and sharing it with friends.

Recipes include:

• Asparagus Goldenrod
• Very Berry Smoothie
• Beet Burgers
• Maple Syrup Marinated Wild Salmon
• Rhubarb Cream Bars

After your meal, pull up a chair and enjoy slice-of-life "Kitchen Table Talks" featuring local food heroes and visionaries transforming our food system. Farmstead Chef also features practical cooking tips and lively short essays inspired by John and Lisa's organic, self-reliant homestead and bed & breakfast.

...compelling, practical and sumptuous. Kivirist and Ivanko prove that you can eat local - and well - year round, even in a four-season climate. ---Brian Halweil, author of Eat Here and senior fellow with the Worldwatch Institute
