Description
In this thoughtful memoir, a young family and a demanding farm face the unpredictable realities of weather, injury, financial strain, and the daily work of feeding a community. Set at Essex Farm in upstate New York, the narrative explores the evolving relationship between marriage, parenthood, and a life rooted in sustainable agriculture. With warmth, humor, and unsentimental honesty, it considers the meaning of commitment, resilience, community, and abundance—alongside the animals, apprentices, neighbors, and seasons that shape farm life.
