Harvest is a beautifully photographed book. It’s quite useful too, not just your run of the mill coffee table book.
Advertised as:
“A beautifully photographed, gift-worthy guide to growing, harvesting, and utilizing 47 unexpected garden plants to make organic pantry staples, fragrances, floral arrangements, beverages, cocktails, beauty products, bridal gifts, and more.”
While it’s a lovely book but I will freely admit to being a lazy person and so, the projects within are more than I would personally take on. Lots of DIY projects which include everything from recipes, to flower arrangements, making tea, flavorings, dyes (for fabric) and even facial cream.
You have plants normally associated with a home garden, the purpose of which is to eat the produce. This book explains how to do so much more with the plants. If I were living the pioneer woman life (no, not like Ree Drummond) then this would be a go-to book …..if I were crafty.
- I received this book from the Blogging for Books program. I was not compensated and all opinions are my own.

It sounds interesting, but like you, don’t think I’d do any of it.

I can get motivated for other things but, I just know I wouldn’t do these projects.

Sounds like a gorgeous book and one that’d be really fun to look through but it’s probably not one I’d use either.

I like how you said … if you were living the pioneer life, and if you were crafty 🙂
