Bread, milk, wool, fruits, and vegetables: things that fill our day to
day lives. But where, and who, do they come from? Across wheat fields
and city rooftop gardens, mushroom beds and maple forests, Thank a
Farmer traces the food and clothing that a family uses back to the
people who harvested and created them.
With Maria Gianferrari's informed and poetic text and monumental artwork
from Monica Mikai, Thank a Farmer gently emphasizes the importance of
agriculture in our day-to-day lives and reminds readers to give thanks
to farmworkers around the world.
