Local Harvest is a website that keeps track of CSAs, farms, farmer’s markets, restaurants, groceries and more that carry local and organic food. Their website also has a lot of great information and articles about local food and also about CSAs in general. Their newsletter this month included a link to a review of a book that looks interesting!
Eating Local: the Cookbook Inspired by America’s Farmers can be purchased directly at Sur La Table stores, or online at IndieBound, Borders, Barnes & Noble, or Amazon.
Here is an excerpt of their review:
In my head I know that growing food for a CSA involves getting up at dawn, working all day and into the evening under the hot sun, pulling countless weeds and lifting thousands of pounds of food out of the soil week after week. Tiring work by any measure. But Eating Local: the Cookbook Inspired by America’s Farmers, makes it all look beautiful. It would be hard to page through the book’s heavy, glossy leaves and not be drawn in. The photographs are glorious, the writing clean, and the stories inspiring.
