Ann M. (annmarin) reviewed Unique memoir of a year as a locavore on 5/4/2009 + 23 more book reviews

Helpful Score: 2

I enjoyed this book, even though to me the idea is preposperous in this day and age. Don't get me wrong, I am all for buying locally grown produce, and I adore farmer's markets, but this really takes it to the extreme. I'm not going to stop buying bananas because they don't grow within 100 miles of where I live, and I don't think in doing that I am ruining the world. Still, aside from some preachy parts, its a good read. The husband's sections left me a little cold, though... you'll see for yourself. Note if you like Barbara Kingsolver (bean trees, poisonwood bible) this is a work of NON FICTION.
