What happens when a citified food writer, who writes about sustainably grown food, moves to her birth state of Michigan to learn about the craft of real farming? Author, food journalist and magazine editor. Kimberly Lord Stewart is about to find out what it really means to be a farmer.
“The first line of my first book, Eating Between the Lines, begins with the line, I am a farmer’s daughter.” While this is true, my father is a farmer, I know nothing about the true craft of farming. For the next six months, I am embarking on a growing season of sorts, to learn more about farming from my father, a third generation farmer. It is a true farm to table story, he is the farmer and I am the table. I look forward to sharing the story with you about how a daughter, her farmer father get to know one another through their common language of food.”
Kimberly Lord Stewart is author of Eating Between the Lines, the supermarket shopper’s guide to the truth behind food labels (St. Martin’s Press, 2007). Stewart is the recipient of two 2004 Association of Food Journalist awards for food news reporting on hunger and fraud in the olive oil industry and a 2001 Jesse Neal Business Journalism Award.
