Description: Home Grown by Ben Hewitt Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description The charming story of one familys mission to build a deeper, lasting connection to land and community on their Vermont farmWhen Ben Hewitt and his wife bought a sprawling acreage of field and forest in northern Vermont, they were eager to start a self-sustaining family farm. But over the years, the land became so much more than a building site; it became the birthplace of their two sons, the main source of family income and food, and even a classroom for their children. Through self-directed play, exploration, and experimentation on their farm, Hewitts children learned how to play and read, test boundaries and challenge themselves, fail and recover. Best of all, this environment allowed their personalities to flourish, fueling further growth.InHome Grown, Hewitt shows us how small, mindful decisions about day-to-day life can lead to greater awareness of the world in our backyards and beyond. In telling the story of his sons unconventional education in the fields and forests surrounding his familys farm, he demonstrates that the sparks of learning are all around us, just waiting to be discovered. Learning is a lifelong process-and the best education is never confined to a classroom. Author Biography BEN HEWITT is the author of Saved, The Town That Food Saved, Making Supper Safe, and articles for magazines such as Bicycling, Discover, Gourmet, Mens Journal, National Geographic Adventure, Outside, the New York Times Magazine, Yankee, Taproot, and many others.
