Praise for From Asparagus to Zucchini
"From Asparagus to Zucchini sparkles with a sense of community, that all-important 'extra' that comes along with beautiful food fresh from the farm. It answers the question of what to do with your armloads of greens, exotic herbs, and never before seen vegetables with recipes that are as concise and doable as they are appealing. The essays that precede the recipes shouldn't be missed—they will reaffirm—or awaken, as need be, your dedication to enjoying the unique flavors of your local foods while nourishing the life of the sustainable family farm. What could be better than that?" Deborah Madison, Author

"If you've got a vegetable, this book probably has a recipe for it—and a great one at that! And to think we used to compost our Jerusalem artichokes." Kevin Henkes
