What is The Farm That Feeds Us : A Year in the Life of an Organic Farm about?

**Where does our food come from? What role do farms play? What's it like to be a farmer? In this charmingly illustrated book, follow a farm throughout the year to discover how the farmer grows fresh and tasty food for us to eat in a sustainable and natural way.** Explore the workings of a small-scale, organic family farm and **experience the rhythm of farm life**. In the **spring**, visit the chicken coop, till the fields and tour the farm machinery. When **summer** comes, plant corn, meet the pollinators and head to the county fair. In the **fall**, make pies and preserves, harvest pumpkins and put the fields to sleep. **Winter** activities include trimming and pruning the orchard, seed shopping and baking bread. To conclude your year on the farm, **learn what you can do to support the farmers** who pick our carrots and raise the cows for our milk. A **glossary** defines key sustainable farming terms. Through this colourful and intimate look at life on a small-scale farm, children will learn not only how the farm feeds us, but how the farmer must feed and care for the farm.
