Bounty from the Box: The CSA Farm Cookbook

Bounty from the Box: The CSA Farm Cookbook is your guide to enjoying nearly 100 fruits, vegetables, and herbs commonly grown by community-supported agriculture (CSA) farms across North America. With this book, you'll never wonder what to do with your weekly CSA box again. This hefty 712-page tome is a truly comprehensive resource. Arranged by season, Bounty from the Box contains more than 350 delicious recipes, many vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free. Each crop entry features practical, extensive information on nutrition, selection, storage, cleaning, cooking techniques, complementary foods, and serving suggestions. You'll also learn cooking tips, fun trivia, how to choose a CSA, what's seasonal when, and much more. Far more than just a cookbook, Bounty from the Box also raises awareness by showcasing exceptional CSA farms and related organizations across America that strengthen their communities by providing not just food but also employment, education, outreach, housing, environmental stewardship, fellowship, compassion, and hope. Nearly 100 essays (many written by farmers themselves) explore the challenges of farming, food ethics, cooking, nutrition, GMOs, and marketing buzzwords, among others. Bounty from the Box can be ordered directly from the website at www.bountyfromthebox.com. Farms, nonprofits, schools, and retailers are eligible for wholesale discounts, and a special electronic PDF with reproducible text just for farms' use for their own CSA newsletters is available; please email author Mi Ae Lipe for details.
