Description

Morning Glory Farm: And the Family That Feeds an Island

Digital E-Book (EPUB • Instant Download)

For generations, Morning Glory Farm has been at the heart of Martha’s Vineyard—feeding an island, shaping a food culture, and proving that farming is as much about family as it is about the land.

Morning Glory Farm: And the Family That Feeds an Island is a richly told farm memoir that captures the people, seasons, and stories behind one of New England’s most beloved family farms. Blending personal history with the rhythms of island life, this book offers an intimate look at what it means to steward land, grow food with intention, and build a legacy rooted in community.

Recognized with a Gourmand World Cookbook Award for Best Local Cuisine in the United States (2009), this book celebrates more than recipes—it honors place, tradition, and the deep connection between food and family.

Through vivid storytelling and beautiful photography by Martha’s Vineyard–based photographer Alison Shaw, readers are invited into the everyday moments that define farm life: early mornings in the fields, shared meals, generational transitions, and the quiet pride of feeding neighbors year after year.
