I promise that your recipe will not be mass produced into bottles where they could end up sitting lonely, almost empty and crusty in someone’s fridge.

Minnesota Homegrown Cookbook
Order Here!
“What a salute this book is to all that is extraordinary about eating and living in Minnesota! We have our own home agriculture — all we need do is walk through a farmer’s market to see it. We support our own — our local farmers, artisans, dairies and all the professional cooks who bring that food to the table. This book brings what could be the missing link. Yes, the recipes are beyond good, but here we have the essential bedrock of who we are as a people — our rural communities. Without them, we become another state of vast factory-driven agriculture.
Thank you Renewing the Countryside for a lush cookbook to cook from everyday and for introducing us to the cooks who link us to our land.”
- Lynne Rossetto Kasper, Host of public radio’s national food show, The Splendid Table® from American Public Media
