Kingsolver

Animal, Vegetable, Miracle by Barbara Kingsolver
This is in the same class as Michael Pollan’s Omnivore’s Dilemma. It is the true story of a family’s attempt to “eat local.” They dubbed themselves “locavores” for one year, and maintained a diet of locally grown and prepared meals. Kingsolver is a great writer and the book is informative as well as entertaining. Her husband and oldest daughter also contribute to this one.
