Farmstand Companion

Farmstand! The word alone recaptures a feeling, an atmosphere, a warm colorful seasonal memory. Who among us has not driven by a tottering, handmade contraption of a farmstand--loaded down with sultry tomatoes, bright green asparagus stalks, a row of snow white cauliflower heads, bins of pale green corn husks and not been tempted to stop? Selling crops on the road or in front of a homestead seemed to be the simplest approach to utilizing excess crops, avoiding waste, sharing the bounty of one's expertise and earning added income. Over 70 pages of recipes follow a delightful history of the farmstand.
