Praise for The Vermont Farm to Table Cookbook
This isn’t just another farm-to-table cookbook; it’s an authentic taste of Vermont terroir. Jenna and Nora are homegrown Vermonters and expert guides through the wheel of the year, from spring’s first greens through winter’s hearty harvests. Lavishly illustrated with easy-to-follow recipes, the book is a joyous celebration of Vermont’s culinary landscape.
This book screams Vermont and all that encompasses. You feel the farm land, the forest and the people coming through every recipe and every photo. Truly a celebration of Vermont food.
The sweetness in the savory dishes achieved a perfect balance; the rich custard [of the maple bourbon crème brulee] was a delightfully mapley indulgence
The book itself is impressive — hard cover, clever design, glossy paper and Jenna’s photographs for each recipe. There are informative cooking instructions for each dish — a book to display that will last a lifetime.
About The Authors
Jenna and Nora Rice have deep roots in Vermont. growing up on a farm in the Connecticut River Valley, both sisters discovered their passion for farming at a young age, working with dairy cattle and helping their parents in the garden as early as 5 years old.
After finishing school, Jenna stayed in Vermont, where she settled on a 5 acre homestead and began a successful career in photography and creative marketing, working with Vermont food and beverage brands to elevate their stories through creative marketing.
Nora attended culinary school in England before working in restaurants all over the world, from Ireland’s only Michilin starred pub, to an Italian Agrotourismo and a caterer in New Zealand, before returning stateside to open her own catering company, Roaming Roots Kitchen.
It was once the two sisters found themselves reunited in Vermont once again that the idea for farm to table was born. Combining Nora’s culinary skills, Jenna’s photography and design abilities, and a shared love for local food, the pair developed, tested and photographed recipes for Vermont Farm to Table, using only locally grown and produced ingredients to create dozens of delicious and unique foods, bringing a sense of place and flavor of Vermont to readers with each recipe.
