Equipped with the knowledge of when to harvest, how to harvest and what supplies are needed to preserve your harvest, anyone can learn what it takes to create authentic, old-fashioned recipes in this age of supermarket dependence. Carla Emery's in-depth knowledge comes from her years spent with farmers and homesteaders who truly lived off the land. Co-author Lorene Forkner offers a discussion of our changing motivation as food consumers and a wealth of recipes for fruits, vegetables, meats and fish and herbs. Do-it-yourselfers can welcome summer's arrival with Chunky Peach Jam and Oven-Dried Tomatoes, or host an Autumn harvest with fresh Herb Bouquets and Smoked Chicken. Step-by-step instructions, illustrations, charts and informational sidebars make the process easy and enjoyable.
