Beth Dooley arrived in Minnesota from her native New Jersey with
preconceptions about the Midwestern food scene. Having learned to
cook in her grandmother's kitchen, shopping at farm stands, and
making preserves, she couldn't help but wonder, "Do people here
really eat swampy broccoli, iceberg lettuce, and fried chicken for
lunch everyday?" These assumptions quickly faded as she began to
explore farmers markets and the burgeoning co-op scene in the Twin
Cities and eventually discovered a local food movement strong
enough to survive the toughest winter. From the husband and wife
who run one of the largest organic farms in the region to Native
Americans harvesting wild rice, and from award-winning cheesemakers
to Hmong immigrant farmers growing the best sweet potatoes in the
country, a rich ecosystem of farmers, artisanal producers, and
restaurateurs comes richly to life in this fascinating book,
demonstrating 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.
