Building upon the philosophy of taking food straight from the garden and into the kitchen, The Harvest Kitchen brings recipes to ensure good, quick (not fast) food with minimal effort. Featuring food background with a dash of growing advice, personal anecdotes, and practical knowledge, each recipe is tried and tested and deliciously tasty. Christine Stevens shares tricks for keeping the pantry full of things to ensure healthy, delicious meals, offering a glimpse into the kitchen of an organic farm and exploring an organic lifestyle. Proving that the tastiest meals are often the simplest, the book features advice on what to plant and grow, when to harvest, what to freeze or dry, and what to bottle.
