Little Farm in the Foothills: A Boomer Couple's Search for the Slow Life

De: Susan Colleen Browne, John F. Browne

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

In this award-winning, true-life tale for gardeners, nature-lovers, and dreamers of all ages, Little Farm in the Foothills follows a midlife couple’s pursuit of the “new” Great American Dream—living closer to the land—as Susan and her husband John start growing their own organic food, living more simply, and transforming an old clearcut into a little homestead.

For the two fifty-somethings, figuring out how to raise food on their logging slash-covered property seemed like a modest goal…at first. But Susan and John discover an adventure that is more life-changing than they envisioned—facing more adversity, yet more joys than they ever could have imagined.

Little Farm in the Foothills is not a memoir about farming…it’s a warmhearted story of making a dream come true. As. As Susan writes of their Foothills home, “it’s not a farm, it’s not even a ‘farmette,’ but it’s the dream of a farm.”
