Farmer: Recipes And Stories From The Land

Rate this book
Stories and recipes from the land.

Farmer Cookbook is a collection of recipes and stories from the heart of rural Australia, created with love by some of Australia's best loved chefs, and by farmers, families and friends in the industries that understand the importance of the food we eat and where it comes from. Farmer Cookbook is a gift of gratitude and support with all sales going towards CWA at a time of great need for rural Australians.

We've interviewed farmers and their working dogs (well, sort of) to tell stories of joy, heartache, resilience, community and innovation in a series of interviews and articles that share with honesty the realities of working the land and the challenges in these prolonged times of drought.

Along with our farmer stories, we offer 80 home-kitchen recipes by a range of chefs including Maggie Beer, Stephanie Alexander, and Jamie Oliver. These simple, indulgent, healthy, comforting and inspiring recipes come together in stunning photographs that will you keep coming back for years to come both in the kitchen and on the coffee table.

Farmer Cookbook is a book of hope and optimism, and a celebration of the resilience, courage and grit of our Australian farmers.

Thank you for sharing meal time and story time for an essential cause.

Reflecting the current joys and hardships on the land, this collection of mini-memoirs and recipes from Aussie farmers has a lot to say. It also has a lot of yummy recipes from farming favourites and celebrity chefs, with stunning photography capturing the essence of rural Australia - even in these drought-stricken times.

Resilience, determination and character are highlighted in the mini-bio’s. Family life, heritage and flavour are reflected in the recipes displayed. (So many tasty recipes to try - and variations of some Aussie classics by renowned and not-so-renowned chefs.)

Community is another big deal in this book, with its publication being a communal effort to support struggling farmers and their communities. All funds raise from the sale of the book go to the CWAs fundraising efforts for those struggling on the land: http://www.farmercookbook.com
