Animal, Vegetable, Miracle: A Year of Food Life by Camille Kingsolver, Steven L. Hopp, Barbara Kingsolver
5.0
funny informative inspiring reflective medium-paced

The Kingsolver family share with us the lessons they have learned not only from their having spent a year surviving on mostly what they could grow on their farm in Appalachia, but with their background in the biological sciences at well. They range as diverse as how the military industrial complex has led to high fructose corn syrup in many of our foods to how you can get vegetables into your kids' chocolate chip cookies. One of my all time favorite books that I recommend for anyone wanting to be a more engaged environmental citizen.
