This Saturday at the Bath Farmers Market, visit the Kennebec Estuary Land Trust’s table to learn about the fun array of upcoming events. Specifically,
the 4th Annual Winter Read, a community book discussion group.
This
season’s selection is Taste, Memory: Forgotten Foods, Lost Flavors, and Why They
Matter by local author, David
Buchanan.
The reader joins gardeners, preservationists,
environmentalists, farmers, and cooks on a journey to rediscover the role of
forgotten varieties of food in our farming fields and at our dinner tables.
It’s a fascinating read that brings together the author’s love of food,
farming, and discovering New England’s unique agricultural and culinary
history.
