About this audiobook

When a New Jersey native moves to Minnesota, she discovers a local food movement strong enough to survive the toughest winter. Fascinating and heartfelt, this memoir demonstrates that even in a place with a short growing season, food grown locally and organically can be healthy, community-based, environmentally conscious, and—most of all—delicious.

Editor's Note

Thrive even when it snows…

Eating locally and sustainably is undeniably the ideal way to live. But outside of the rich, temperate fields of California where the slow food movement in America took hold, there is a greater challenge. In places like Minnesota where the earth is hard and frozen for half the year, farmers still have to feed their communities all year long. “In Winter’s Kitchen” explores the foods, chapter by chapter, that sustain those communities, and the local food scenes that are thriving, even when it snows.
