A love-letter to the unexpected delights (and occasional despair) of so-called "first-hand food"-meals we grow, forage, fish, or even hunt from the world around us.To Boldly Growis "part memoir, part how-to guide and wholly delightful" (Washington Post).
Journalist and self-proclaimed "crappy gardener" Tamar Haspel is on a mission: to show us that raising or gathering our own food is not as hard as it's often made out to be. When she and her husband move from Manhattan to two acres on Cape Cod, they decide to adopt a more active approach to their diet: raising chickens, growing tomatoes, even foraging for mushrooms and hunting their own meat. They have more ambition than practical know-how, but that's not about to stop them from trying...even if sometimes their reach exceeds their (often muddy) grasp.
