Scorpio Books and Bateman Books warmly welcome you to the Ōtautahi Christchurch launch of The Food Farm by Angela Clifford and Nick Gill. More than just a cookbook, The Food Farm is a glimpse into the lives of a family who grow and find most of their own food. Angela Clifford, Nick Gill and their children live on a 16-acre permaculture property in North Canterbury, New Zealand, where they help others embark on their food growing journeys via on-farm workshops and events.
All welcome, refreshments provided. Free event.
Please send in your RSVP.
There will be books for sale on the night for $55.00.
ABOUT THE BOOK
Including a seasonal diary for sourcing your own fruit, vegetables, nuts, eggs, dairy, honey, meat from your own gardens, paddocks and from the wild, this gorgeous book also includes sensational recipes and preserves that allow you to get the most out of every harvest. Understanding the power of community sufficiency, Angela and Nick encourage us all, whatever our situation, to grow, find and cook more of our own food. The Food Farm is a vision for a healthier, more nurturing and connected way of living for ourselves and our planet.
ABOUT THE AUTHORS
Angela Clifford has loved using words to communicate thoughts and ideas since she was young. A life growing, cooking and sharing food has provided a fertile ground to nurture her words. As one of New Zealand’s thought leaders in food, farming and the environment she leads Aotearoa’s not for profit food movement Eat New Zealand, their mission is to reconnect people with our land and ocean through food.
But her home base is The Food Farm, a Permaculture property in North Canterbury. Here, with her husband and children, they run workshops and events, helping other people learn how to grow, preserve and make food from scratch. Their first book The Food Farm is a celebration of twenty years of living on and loving this piece of land.
