>> Animal Vegetable YES
Amusing and entertaining instructive and educational this book fulfilled my expectations on a number of levels
Our house has been gardening organically for years but we only planted what we knew we would use in a season Tomatoes some zucchini herbs beans and recently collards I did not attempt the 100 mile diet and probably would not officially do it Yet this book helped me to understand what my carbon footprint is in regards to food consumption
I ve purchased 3 additional copies and have had them sent to friends
I had my husband read the book
I have begun to make radical changes in how I buy food more Farmer Markets I ve learned about CSA I m considering looking for real estate where I can raise egg laying hens
I learned about Alice Waters and have now got a couple of her books We ve bought our own bread machine and now prepare our own bread weekly I ve got an electric dehydrator for tomatoes and veggies
All in all it is one book which has had a huge impact on our lives both in and out of the kitchen
>> Revolutionary and Poetic Gardening
Only an extraordinary writer convincingly describe the joy of growing asparagus Lucky for us she s sensational
Animal Vegetable Miracle is a call to farms She wants us to savor locally grown seasonal produce to patiently nurture our own vegetables and to lovingly consume and share the delectable fruits of our labor Her warm personal vignettes are interspersed with well researched journalistic peeks at the ugly back story of supermarket superfoods and teen foodie anecdotes and recipes
She convinced me Our snap pea carrot tomato and watermelon seeds were in the ground before the last chapter
