Book excerpt: For the millions of people who devour books like A Year in Provence, shop at farmer's markets, and have an insatiable appetite for the TV Food Network -- a book that celebrates the soulful delights of country living. In My Brother's Farm, Doug Jones, an overeducated vegetable delivery boy and incorrigible entrepreneur, leads a spirited romp through a buffet of organic farming, swanky restaurants, and copper-filled swamps. His story takes the reader into the charming world of rural life and local agriculture, while introducing some real-life characters who would be perfectly at home in the wackiest of novels. From wine making to vegetable growing, from oyster cultivating to suburban bow hunting, this is the tapestry of rural life today. A vicarious weekend in the country, this book is the antidote for everyday life.
