A gorgeous full-color celebration of America's local food heroes and traditions, EDIBLE is for anyone who cares about delicious, safe, sustainable food being cultivated and created every day by people in our own backyards. The book offers engaging, inspiring profiles of farmers, artisans, chefs, and organizations that are making a difference, and shares eighty seasonal recipes that highlight the very best local foods across the country. The reassurance of stirring a bubbling pot of Vermont Cheddar Ale Soup or baking a pan of Rhubarb Bread Pudding with Whiskey Sauce will be bolstered by stories of the people all across the country making a difference in our food systems.
About the Author
In 2002, with more than twenty years of marketing, writing and graphic design experience under her belt, Tracey Ryder co-founded Edible Communities, Inc. as a way to combine these professional skills and enhance her personal values. Growing up in the Adirondack Mountains of upstate New York, Tracey spent her childhood paddling a canoe and canning vegetables from her family garden. This pure environment, rich with seasonal flavors, taught her that the best way to look at the world was from the ground up. It is this perspective that helps Tracey maintain the grassroots nature of Edible Communities, connecting consumers, farmers, purveyors, chefs and food artisans of all kinds through her community based publications. Carole Topalian, co-founder and vice president of Edible Communities, Inc., travels the world with a gifted and finely tuned photographer's eye. Carole's photographs bring the Edible Communities' mission to life, telling visual narratives about what local food networks look like today.
