As society moves toward becoming more environmentally friendly and sustainable, consumers are looking for food sources that are both healthy to eat and ethically produced. Catherine Friend, author of the cult favorite
Hit by a Farm, is a humane farmer and omnivore. In her new book, Friend combines her personal experiences as a farmer with facts about what happens to meat before it hits the table in order to help consumers become healthy (and humane) carnivores.
“At last, the perfect book for people who would like to eat meat but have moral, ethical, or health concerns about doing so. Catherine Friend loves animals but eats meat and gives a thoughtful, personal, clear-eyed perspective on how to do both, humanely and sustainably.”
