For cooks who grow, and growers who cook—The Cook’s Garden offers 460+ pages of practical, beautifully photographed inspiration that connects the vegetable patch to the plate.

Kevin West, author of Saving the Season, combines hands-in-the-dirt gardening guidance with inventive, deeply flavorful recipes. Along the way, he covers everything from composting (complete with a Walt Whitman poem) to crop rotation, freezing and storing surplus vegetables, and making pantry staples like canned tomatoes or herbal vinegars.

The recipes are inviting and varied—marinated wax beans, a vegetable-packed summer pot pie, or chicken and pumpkin braised in amontillado—and they reflect the simple pleasure of letting fresh, homegrown ingredients lead the way.

Even readers without a garden of their own will find something here to savor. Whether you’ve got raised beds, a few pots on a fire escape, or just the idea of a garden, this book encourages a richer connection to the food you cook and the natural world that produces it.

Hardcover. Color photographs throughout.
