Farm City, Novella Carpenter

All right, I'm going to have to start doubling up on my one-sentence book reviews until I'm all caught up. Just one tonight, though. Ben is sleeping on one of my arms, so typing is a time-consuming endeavor right now!

Farm City, by Novella Carpenter

Inspired by her hippie parents and a love for the fresh food and city life, blogger-turned-author Novella Carpenter chronicles her heartbreaking failures (think mangled carcasses following a wild dog attack) and triumphant successes (backyard self-sufficiency) in her witty memoir, Farm City, The Education of an Urban Farmer, a tale of dumpster diving, mail-order poultry, and above all else, mouth-watering, sustainable food.
