I’m giving the opening keynote at the Maine Grain Alliance’s 2025 Kneading Conference, which culimiantes in the Maine Artisan Bread Fair on July 26. My talk is at 8:30 a.m. at the Strand Cinema in Skowhegan, Maine. I’m really looking forward to this one.

It’s summer reading time, at last
I’m going to try to get caught up with some reading recommendations this week, starting with this lovely one:
Marcy, Nikiko, and David Mas Masumoto. The Perfect Peach: Stories and Recipes from the Masumoto Family Farm. Ten Speed Press, 2013.
I was asked to blurb this book and did so right away (who could possibly say no to Mas Masumoto?):
I have one word for the writing, photography, essays, and topic of this book: luscious. The Masumoto family has produced a glorious paean to the fruit they raise along with delightful ideas about what to do with an abundance of this heavenly fruit: sangria, salsa, pizza, and, of course, shortcake. I can’t wait for summer.
