If you don't know what an "agrihood" is, you will after reading Anna DeSimone's book Welcome to the Agrihood, and you'll totally want to live in one. Agrihoods are healthy lifestyle communities centered around a farm as opposed to a golf course. The idea is to get residents communing more with nature through hiking and biking trails, as well as providing fresh fruit and vegetables for the residents to enjoy. The book includes listings of agrihoods in every state, and if you're like me and live in a state that doesn't have many agrihood choices, then the book also offers tips for backyard or windowsill gardening. There are also resources for finding local farmer's markets and joining local CSAs.While I enjoyed learning about agrihoods and wishing I could live in one, I wasn't totally sure if the book's content worked as a book. It almost seemed like this could have been a website with chunks of information and all the pertinent links just a click away.
Welcome to the Agrihood is published by BookBaby and will be available to purchase on July 24, 2020. I received a free review copy.
