With biting satire and wit, Turner speaks to the heart of the problems we face with industrial agriculture.

"The power to discuss the modern food system in America with humor and heroes is one tall order. This book has done it. A captivating read!

Radical, outrageous, insightful…the future of food.

Kelly Anne Blount

"Part Appalachian tall tale, part thoughtful critique of the global systems that feed us, Turner weaves an engaging story about people working together to create a new way to eat that is better for land, community, and the planet."
