Book Review of Plenty: Eating Locally on the 100-Mile Diet

Plenty: Eating Locally on the 100-Mile Diet
sari-lynn avatar reviewed on + 207 more book reviews


A thoroughly engaging memoir written by a Canadian couple - he writes one chapter, she writes the next - who challenge themselves to eat only locally produced food (they agree that this meed within 100 miles of their home) for a year. They write about the difficulties they encounter, and their unexpected triumphs, with such good humor that more than once I found myself wishing I was a friend invited to share a meal with them!
