This Organic Life: Confessions of a Suburban Homesteader

by Joan Dye Gussow

Description

In this lively and candid memoir, a longtime food educator turns her suburban home into a laboratory for growing, preserving, and thoughtfully consuming food. With humor and practical insight, she explores the pleasures and challenges of gardening, cooking from scratch, and living more deliberately in an increasingly industrialized food system. The book is both a personal account of everyday self-sufficiency and a thoughtful meditation on health, sustainability, consumer culture, and the connections between what we eat and how we live.
