2015-02-14 01:01:37| Powells Books Events Calendar
In Lentil Underground (Gotham Books), journalist Liz Carlisle, a protégé of Michael Pollan, shares the inspiring story of a little-known group of farmers who defied agribusiness by launching a unique sustainable farm-to-table food movement. Carlisle reports on the handful of colorful pioneers who have successfully bucked the chemically based food chain and the entrenched power of agribusiness by stubbornly banding together. Lentil Underground weaves an eye-opening and richly reported narrative that will be welcomed by readers of food and farm memoirs as well as everyone concerned with the future of American agriculture and natural food in an increasingly uncertain world.
