Love this interview...love you both! I read The Farmer's Wife and enjoyed it very much! I'm a homesteading woman in West Virginia and I relate very much to Helen's words. I oversee our home and take great pride...feel a great responsibility for my homemaking tasks. While I spear-headed our lifestyle, my family is totally into it! We raise poultry for meat and eggs, grow huge gardens, cook from scratch, homeschool, and use herbal medicine. We love knowing the skills, learning every day, eating wholesome/homemade foods, and all the rest. Thank you, Helen, for giving voice to the "all-in" homemaker!

British student here! I grew up with family dinners being near on daily, and they are some of my most treasured memories. Now I’m at uni, I frequently make dinner for my friends and get them all around my table for good food and good company.

Thanks so much to Nick, Helen, and The Berry Center. The particulars of this good conversation about a book, a friendship, a farm, and food remind me of Wendell's thought from long ago that "A community is the mental and spiritual condition of knowing that the place is shared, and that the people who share the place define and limit the possibilities of each other's lives." May good work of all kinds flourish.
