  • Winter Squash with Kevin West - A Way to Garden with Margaret Roach - Oct. 13, 2025
    Oct 8 2025
    Kevin West begins his newest book, called “The Cook’s Garden,” like this: “This is a book about flavor,” he writes. “It is a book about how to become a better cook by stepping into the garden.” His is not just a cookbook, though. It’s also a book about how to grow edible crops, from seed to harvest—so a cookbook and a gardening book all in one, highlighting exceptional varieties to cultivate and enjoy.

  • Tomatoes With Craig LeHoullier-A Way to Garden With Margaret Roach February 28, 2022
    Feb 26 2022

    Sick of winter? What I find helps, besides the occasional warmish, sunny day, is thinking about tomatoes. And that's what we're going to do today with Craig LeHoullier, author of the hit 2014 book “Epic Tomatoes,” who has over the years grown some 3,000 varieties in his home garden and adds new ones to his list every year

    Craig, who gardens in North Carolina, is a retired chemist with a longtime passion for tomatoes. He's the co-founder of the Dwarf Tomato Project, an advisor on tomatoes to Seed Savers Exchange, and the person who in 1990 named the popular heirloom Cherokee Purple from seed that had been passed down and eventually made its way to him.

Sarah Owens, author of “Sourdough: Rustic Recipes for Fermented Breads, Sweets, Savories, and More,” has already had several very creative careers. Originally a professional ceramic... Read More ›
