Description

The best of Vermont, from the kitchens of Simon Pearce and King Arthur to the fields of local farms.

The picturesque Green Mountain State is known for its maple syrup, stunning peaks, and undeniable farm-to-table spirit. Truly the core of Vermont’s community, independent farms and agricultural diversity are the wellspring of the state’s fresh, whole-food dining scene. From small family-run operations to locally owned and nationally recognized brands, the recipes and stories of The Vermont Farm Table Cookbook bring a little piece of that Vermont spirit into your home kitchen.

Now, after 10 years, author Tracey Medeiros has revised and fully updated this culinary tome to highlight the dedication of Vermont’s farmers, with brand-new recipes, photos, and local farm profiles. Including feel-good dishes like Vermont Cheddar Soup, Maple-Glazed Sweet Potatoes, Apple-Stuffed Chicken Breasts, homemade Vermont Maple Ice Cream, and so much more, readers can indulge in the comforting, farm-fresh flavors of all this beautiful state has to offer.

Tracey Medeiros’ 10th anniversary edition of The Vermont Farm Table Cookbook is notable for its enduring recipes, beautiful design and photography. Most importantly, it stands as testament to the strength of the food chain when supported, the enduring legacy of the farmer, the family farm, the rootsy foods that are the backbone of our culture and the needs for more of what’s represented in the table of contents. This classic should be cooked from in your kitchen.

What a pleasure to see the pictures and read the stories of these farms — some I know well, and other I’ve just driven past. They’re our glory in Vermont — and with these recipes it’s a glory that can easily be shared.
