Reviews
"Estate Grown is a personal, entertaining, and helpful manual for anyone who has dreamed of moving from city to countryside to live off the land. Two San Francisco professionals are smitten by rural Amador County, where they buy a hobby farm they dub the Middle Age Spread. They embrace farming life with tireless energy, mastering new skills with discipline, patience, and humor. This story is so inspiring that other urban dwellers are apt to start scouting for their own Fiddletown as soon as they finish the book." - Mike Dunne, former wine columnist for The Sacramento Bee and author of The Signature Wines of Superior California. "Like a fine Zinfandel, Feeney's Estate Grown is, complex, rich, with some occasionally astringent and tart characters, but ultimately triumphing with a satisfying finish, best enjoyed with fine company in front of a fire. Hugely enjoyable!" - Raj Patel, author of Stuffed and Starved and The Value of Nothing "If you loved A Year in Provence, this book will warm your heart. Through hard work on a steep learning curve, with tons of creativity and grit, two women fulfill a California fantasy, transforming a small farm into a dream retirement spot, with colorful interactions with locals along the way." - Linda Morris, former Chair of English, University of California at Davis "These stories from the Sierra foothills are teeming with the sights, sounds, and smells of nature while brimming with insights into the realities of farming and the challenges outsiders encounter seeking acceptance in a rural community as divided as America is today. It is a poignant account of how one couple's pastoral dream ultimately comes to abundant fruition. - John Mulholland, former Editor-in-Chief of The Guardian US and of The Observer
Synopsis
This is the story of one couple's adventure transitioning from being urban professionals in San Francisco to embrace a rural farming life in a small town in the Sierra foothills., This feast for the senses is just the ticket for anyone who has driven through the country and wondered "Gee, what would it be like to leave the city behind, move to a place full of meadows, vineyards, orchards and forests and start growing my own food." The author's innocence optimism and perseverance invite readers to imagine themselves undertaking such an adventure and make it all seem doable. The Fiddletown Stories is escapist literature at its very finest, filled with descriptions of the unique foothills environment and the colorful characters who inhabit it.
