"From spring's asparagus and peas and summer's cherries, cucumbers and peppers to autumn's pears and squash and winter's potatoes and citrus--twelve healthy ingredients are harvested in one of the townspeople's gardens and then used to make an easy, delicious dish. As the year comes to a close, the town gathers for a giant picnic. The recipes, which include savory and sweet pies, soups, sauces, pancakes, and croquettes, embrace a wide array of cultures, and feature fresh flavors and easy-to-source ingredients. Kids will learn not only how to incorporate fruits and vegetables into meals, but also how they grow and when they ripen."-- Publisher's website.
