Thank you for bringing attention to the committed work Tamara Murphy does to raise awareness and monies in support of our local farmers. From what I’ve experienced, she does so from the bottom of her heart. Burning Beast and An Incredible Feast are only two examples of things she’s created to support the community and our farmers, often staying behind the scenes to keep the focus on the true purpose of what they are all about. Another such example is her first book that’s coming out this Fall. TENDER: farmers, cooks, eaters shares simply ways to enjoy eating, cooking and choosing the bounty of fresh, seasonal foods our farmers raise for us. Thank you for bringing attention to grassroot efforts likes Tamara’s that support our local farmers, nourishing ourselves and our communities!
