Right This Very Minute Children’s Book paired with Corn Casserole Recipe

We decided to pair our corn casserole recipe with Right This Very Minute: A table-to-farm book about food and farming by byLisl H Detlefsen and illustrated byRenee Kurilla.

One of the things that I think is really important when cooking with kids is to have discussions on where our food comes from—and how it’s not the grocery store!

This book is the perfect discussion tool for that.

What’s great about this book is that it also covers modern agricultural practices (and not just people who look like Old MacDonald like in many picture books).

This book will take you on a journey of discussing how different foods make from the farm all the way to our table for eating in a celebration of not just food, but also farming.
