Description - Farm From Home by Amanda Brooks

In search of a quieter, simpler life away from the grind, Amanda Brooks moved with her family in 2012 from New York City to her husband's family farm in Oxfordshire, England. Originally intended to be a yearlong creative sabbatical, Brooks's relocation became permanent. Farm from Home is her chronicle of newfound freedom, told through a year's changing seasons. She describes the adjustment to her new surroundings with gorgeous detail and photographs, finding joy in unexpected moments each day and punctuating each month with delicious recipes that use ingredients from her own garden and farm.

Creatively inspiring, warmly personal and witty, and brimming with cooking and entertaining how-tos, Farm from Home is Amanda Brooks's chronicle of the joys and challenges of a more focused lifestyle, away from harried routines and the sounds of city streets. For anyone who has longed for an escape from their hectic schedule, whether for a year, a week, or a lifetime, Brooks shares the unexpected satisfaction of slowing down, reconnecting with nature, and making the most of a simpler life.
