Grandma's Garden (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781517448080)

As a mother, Jody sees a need to bring uncomplicated relationships with food and people to the young. Having been raised on a farm she sees the need for children to understand that food can be healthy and delicious and that it is grown before it was purchased from the grocery store or restaurant. She also sees the need to highlight healthy relationships with others. Exploring growing seasons, the idea of garden to table or farm to table processes, good interpersonal relationships, working in the soil, and passing along wisdom are all themes that Jody has attempted to bring to this work. Creating easy to make recipes for the book was key to bringing an experiential component to the readers. Jody intends for this book be read to children as a way to bond over the concepts within.
