Homegrown is such a gorgeous, comprehensive, and completely charming book. Heather's illustrations and lettering are as delicious as her recipes—even the novice gardener or chef (like me) will be inspired to plant, grow, cook and eat. * Wendy MacNaughton, illustrator and author of Meanwhile in San Francisco * Heather Hardison’s Homegrown beautifully highlights the important relationship between garden and kitchen. The illustrations warmly convey each season's offerings and all of their potential. It takes me back to my childhood … my memories of participating in our family garden, and all of the delicious and meaningful meals that it yielded. To cook the things that we grow is a beautiful privilege that everyone should have the opportunity to experience, and this book opens the door to that opportunity. * Ashley Christensen, chef/owner, Poole's Diner * Homegrown is a gorgeous delight of a book. Equal parts gardening tips, tasty recipes, and knock-out illustrations, it made me want to go whip up a batch of creme fraiche and plant some fava beans. * Novella Carpenter, author of Farm City *
