Picture Book Announcement!
Food for the Future: Sustainable Farms Around the World by Mia Wenjen, illustrated by Robert Sae-Heng
This is a rhyming picture book featuring twelve unusual farms around the world. From vertical gardens in Singapore to ancient terrace farms in Chile, humans have innovated with sustainable farms throughout history. How do we feed our planet? Here are 12 ways we can grow food while caring for our planet!
I’m thrilled to be working with Lisa and Autumn at Barefoot Books and blown away by the illustrations that I’ve seen so far from Robert Sae-Heng.
Please look for Food for the Future: Sustainable Farms Around the World in Spring of 2023!
