THE PERENNIAL KITCHEN event at Deep Valley Book Festival with Beth Dooley

October 5 @ 3:30 pm

Beth Dooley, author of The Perennial Kitchen: Simple Recipes for a Healthy Future, will give the keynote address at the Deep Valley Book Festival on Saturday, October 5 at 3:30 p.m. CST.

This event is free and open to the public, but seating is limited.


In The Perennial Kitchen, James Beard Award–winning author Beth Dooley provides the context of food’s origins, along with delicious recipes, nutrition information, and tips for smart sourcing. More than a farm-to-table cookbook, this book expands the definition of “local food” to embrace regenerative agriculture, the method of growing small and large crops with ecological services. 

“Beth Dooley’s The Perennial Kitchen is not only a cookbook but also a guide for how to transform our food and agriculture systems. The regenerative agriculture practices described here are good for the planet—and delicious!” —Danielle Nierenberg, president, Food Tank, and 2020 recipient of the Julia Child Award

The Perennial Kitchen provides recipes that bring out the best in a wide range of ingredients coming out of a new generation of Minnesota farms.” —Star Tribune 

“Whether you are a foodie looking for new recipes to try or someone committed to nature, the environment and good food, The Perennial Kitchen has a lot to offer.” —Northern Gardener 

“Beth’s natural ability for warm and descriptive food prose is such a joy to read and experience, and it shines in The Perennial Kitchen.” —Sean Sherman, author of James Beard Award–winning The Sioux Chef’s Indigenous Kitchen
