Earth Eating by Andrew Barton - Unique Art Book for Nature Lovers & Eco-Conscious Readers | Perfect for Home Decor, Gift Ideas & Sustainable Living Inspiration

Foreword by Jonathan Kauffman. Contributing essays by Nicole Lavelle and Lola Milholland. Original drawings by Sam Farrell.

A counterculture cookbook for these strange times. 

Mixing memoir and loose recipes, this book intends to inspire a “free” approach to cooking and eating. A literally down-to-earth approach – as in: food grown, purchased, cooked, and consumed with an awareness of the Earth. A reflection on an idealistic, optimistic, possibility-fueled young adulthood spent around tables of co-op houses and would-be communes. An appreciation for groovy, light-hearted, no-rules cuisine. 

Hippies of the past dreamt of a better world from their kitchens, and today we can do the same as we cook and eat in more informed, conscious, intentional ways. 

This book is a love letter to Eugene, Oregon – a small city where this free spirited food and mindset have long been commonplace – and takes a close look at the formative food memories that make us hunger for another taste. Free Food is a not-done-dreaming exploration of alternative ways of living in the now.
