Farmer's markets are hip and healthy - they are about lifestyle and about food. This book covers all aspects of this new trend: the principles of the markets, where to find them, and the benefits of shopping at them rather than a supermarket. RRP $39.95 Our Price $35.95. As well as being an excellent collection of seasonal recipes, this book incorporates much information about the working lives of direct-selling farmers, most of whom have seen their profits and satisfaction increase, and a strongly argued case for the intelligent regulation of the market system. But the whole point of farmers' markets is the quality of the food and Henrietta Green provides excellent ideas for what to do with it when you get it home, be it honey, game, beef, vegetables, bread or cheese. She gives a fine recipe for roast loin of veal, for example--how wonderful to think that one can eat veal now with a clear conscience. A wild mushroom and garlic pizza is another eye-catcher, as is lamb shanks with port. Although the recipes are seasonal, most are provided with modifications to fit different parts of the year. All very expert, appetising and inspirational; and likely to make you feel a better person. As Henrietta Green says, farmers' markets may not save the planet, but they make it a better place to live.
