Eat locally. Eat simply. Eat seasonally. Eat healthily. Eat Like a Farmer!

The search for healthy, local produce can be a challenge. And once you have all that local Swiss chard in hand, what should you do with it? Author and regenerative farmer Megan Neubauer walks you through sourcing her favorite varieties of vegetables, fruits, meats, and pantry staples wherever you are, and then transforming your finds into a delicious farm-to-table meal.

Eat Like a Farmer offers over 110 seasonal recipes that are simple enough for busy weeknights with kids yet decadent enough for the most special of gatherings, including:

• Golden Beets with Caramelized Onions, Pine Nuts, and Feta and Strawberry and Tarragon Biscuit Shortcakes in spring
• Eggplant and Potato Curry, Pork Chops with Stewed Peaches and Tomatoes, and Blackberry Pavlova in summer
• Short Rib Chili, Maple and Coriander Carrots, and Pumpkin Rye Chocolate Chip Cookies in fall
• Beet and Dark Chocolate Brownies with Ginger and Udon Noodles with Beef and Bok Choy in winter

There’s a recipe here for every season and every palate. Throughout, Megan reminds us that getting to know your local farmer can turn a weekly task into a moment of connection and excitement about what each season has in store. By supporting the farmers who are restoring our soil and caring for our planet through organic and regenerative practices, you’ll also see that making truly delectable, nutrient-dense dishes begins well before you plate your dish. It is the healthy soil, proper land stewardship, and humane, pasture-based practices that make all the difference.
Eat Like a Farmer is about connecting with your food, from the places and people you buy it from to the moment it arrives on your table as a delicious, healthy meal.
