The Berkshires Farm Table Cookbook

The Berkshires hills of western Massachusetts are a scenic and recreational paradise home to artistic and literary attractions. In addition to the region's classic landmarks, the Berkshires also boast an impressive number of family-run farms. Together with local restaurants, these farms add another feature to the cultural depth of the Berkshires: heartwarming and homegrown food. Elisa Spungen Bildner and Robert Bildner highlight the dedication of the Berkshires' farmers, with a selection of brand-new recipes and local farm profiles. Telling the story of family-run agriculture, this second edition offers more than 125 recipes to recall the magic of the region for readers far and wide. Complete with vibrant photographs, The Berkshires Farm Table Cookbook celebrates the lush landscape of the western New England area and paints a vivid portrait of an agricultural tradition built on a commitment to community, sustainability and a passion for fresh, locally grown food.
