Customer Reviews

Give Thanks for this GREAT cookbook

Eat local, garden for goodness sake. This fabulously handsome photographic cookbook is a delight for all ages, but kids 6 to 14 will love it best. Simple nutritious recipes presented with enticing photos not only emphasize grow-your-own, but using local produce, in season. There is absolutely nothing you can say about the recipes except YES I CAN DO THAT! and the sense of astonishment for the bounty of the garden is an ever-present theme. It is a feast for the eyes, would be a great classroom cookbook, and is most highly recommended.

Easy to read and do

I like to teach my three school age kids about what produce is in season and how to cook to take advantage of this. These recipes are simple and tasty with great pictures. The only complaint would be that there are not enough recipes!
