Ragosta writes the recipes that keep local R.I. farms cooking.
In a time of sky-high grocery prices, this Rhode Island cook
and mother of 5 barters food for recipes - and creates works
of art. ~Lauren Daley, The Boston Globe |

With over 500 delicious recipes, Kimberly Ragosta from Little
House in the Forest brings you "A Time to Gather"
-- a cookbook that will fill you with inspiration and ideas for
cooking local and seasonal farm-fresh foods that are designed to
bring people together in a way that fills you with love, purpose
and good food.
| In
a time when home-cooked meals have been replaced by takeout,
this treasure trove of recipes could not be more valuable.
The
industrial food system has intentionally removed transparency
in favor of convenience, leaving a path of destruction in
its wake. We meet so many people that are beginning to uncover
the truth and yearn to make a difference. They like the idea
of supporting local farms and see it as an imperative cultural
shift but have never heard of kohlrabi or short ribs, let
alone know how to cook them. Kim Ragosta masterfully marries
these issues by partnering with her favorite local farms to
encourage all of us to take the leap into supporting the change
that we wish to see in the food system and learn how to make
incredibly delicious and nutritious meals that nourish our
families, our communities, and our planet.
Simple
home-cooked meals, sourced from honest, local farms, is the
antidote to our unhealthy diets, cultures, and ecosystems.
