Getting Fresh is a detailed guide to local organic farms, box programs, seasonal markets, shops and restaurants. It contains outstanding recipes from farmers, vendors and well-known chefs.

You'll find a Victoria urban gardener with sweet juicy garlic to sell, a Salt Spring Island dairy farm producing British-style cheese from a small Jersey herd, a legendary herb farm overlooking the Saanich Peninsula, an irresistable chocolatier and a feast of country farmers' markets from James May to Mill Bay.

Ravenhill Herb Farm, Apple Luscious Orchard, Saltspring Island Cheese, Capers, The Aerie Resort, Feys & Hobbs, Dunsmuir Lodge Dining Room, the Cafe Brio and Cassis Bistro are just some of the recipe contributors.

Due in part to the media attention given to "Frankenfoods" of late, there is an increased local interest in organic food production and consumption. People are hungry for information about where to buy and how to eat naturally.
