Nonfiction Book Recommendations: My Organic Life by Nora Pouillon

 

My Organic Life: How a Pioneering Chef Helped Shape the Way We Eat Today by Nora Pouillon

Did you know that sales of organic goods still represent only six percent of all food sold in U.S?  Have you ever wondered why organic foods are less popular than other food choices? Are these foods better for our bodies and environment? There is an ongoing debate about whether these foods are healthy or not. 

If you want to explore the history of organic foods with a personal touch, then this book is a must read as it is a personal memoir of an author who is quite expressive about her love for organic foods.

Adventure Begins at Your Library - Explore New Genres

 

In keeping with Forsyth County Public Library's summer reading theme, Adventure Beings at Your Library, visitors to the Sharon Forks Library can explore new genres and find reading suggestions in themed picnic baskets throughout the branch. 

Our June picnic basket themes highlight books for foodies, short stories, classics, and green reads, which include fiction and nonfiction books that have an environmental angle.  

The foodie basket includes colorful cookbooks, fun and fascinating fiction for cooks and gourmets, and even a Thai comic cookbook, Noodles, Rice, and Everything Spice by Christina de Witte.
