When Kingsolver and her family move from suburban Arizona to rural Appalachia, they take on a new challenge: to spend a year on a locally produced diet, paying close attention to the provenance of all they consume. "Our highest shopping goal was to get our food from so close to home, we'd know the person who grew it. Often that turned out to be ourselves as we learned to produce what we needed, starting with dirt, seeds, and enough knowledge to muddle through. Or starting with baby animals, and enough sense to refrain from naming them."--From publisher description.… (més)

Farming
  BooksInMirror | Feb 19, 2024 |
This book took me back to my childhood in Southern Indiana where my family grew most of our vegetables and, with my grandparents, 'harvested' chickens in the back yard every summer. I envy those who have the yard space for a garden. And I'm frequenting local Farmer's Markets more regularly now since I read this book. I will venture to say that this book will forever change your relationship with food. ( )

I can't get enough food politics!! This book was enjoyable to read and had some very good critisism of our agribusiness practices. The Kingslover family lived off of local food for a year, and learned to get in tune with the seasons and the land and their neighbors. ( )

Great book about eating organic food, running your farm, & family. Probably won't convert you but if you are on the fence about food choices, check it out. ( )
  cdaley | Nov 2, 2023 |
I wish, I WISH I could find myself a little plot of land....I had such trouble going food shopping after reading this book, and thankfully, it still makes me pause before I buy those out-of-season, out-of-country so-called delicacies. A delicious book with a moral! ( )

If everything my heart desired was handed to me on a plate, I’d probably just want something else. (Camille Kingsolver)
We all cultivate illusions of safety that could fall away in the knife edge of one second.”
People who are grieving walk with death every waking moment. When the rest of us dread that we’ll somehow remind them of death’s existence, we are missing their reality.
Wake up now, look alive, for here is a day off work just to praise Creation: the turkey, the squash, and the corn, these things that ate and drank sunshine, grass, mud, and rain, and then in the shortening days laid down their lives for our welfare and onward resolve. There’s the miracle for you, the absolute sacrifice that still holds back seeds: a germ of promise to do the whole thing again, another time.
