Blueberry Hill Farm

There are a couple of really good, informative, inspirational books that I have read recently.  I'd like to encourage everyone to read them because I really feel they have some great information.

The first is "Real Food:  What to Eat and Why" by Nina Planck.  Sometimes, when I read something I feel in my heart it is truth.  I loved the book and it articulated very clearly some of the things I felt but didn't have the facts at hand to back up my feeling.  Nina Planck is a great writer; very personable.  The book is an easy read and each chapter pretty much stands alone, if, like me, you skip around.

The second is "Everything I Want To Do Is Illegal" by Joel Salatin.  I've never met Salatin, but I'd sure like to.  He's the kind of person I'd just like to sit down and spend a few hours talking with.  I love his writing style.  It really reads like an ongoing conversation.  Heck, I'd love to be an apprentice at his farm for a few weeks.  Only one problem:  MY FARM!

So, if you're looking for a couple of good, farm related books, by two folks who are in the thick of the farming fray, check out these books.
