The Chef’s Garden:
A Modern Guide To Common & Unusual Vegetables

The-Chefs-Garden-Book

In our guide and cookbook, Farmer Lee Jones shares the wealth of knowledge he and our team have amassed on how to select, prepare, and cook vegetables. This book is a new companion for farmers market shoppers and home cooks, featuring more than 500 entries, from herbs to edible flowers to varieties of commonly known and not-so-common produce. With 100 recipes created by the head chef Jamie Simpson at The Culinary Vegetable Institute at The Chef’s Garden, you can learn innovative techniques to transform vegetables in your kitchen with dishes such as Ramp Top Pasta, Seared Rack of Brussels Sprouts, and Cornbread-Stuffed Zucchini Blossoms, and even sweet concoctions like Onion Caramel and Beet Marshmallows.

We grow and harvest with the notion that every part of the plant offers something unique for the plate, and this one-of-a-kind book emulates that. With a dedication to health, sustainability, and of course, vegetables, The Chef’s Garden is bound to become your next kitchen staple.

I have tried various vegetable delivery programs and Farmer Jones Farm has blown all others out of the water! The flavor, color and smells can't be beat. Every time I receive my box, it's like I'm just walking in from my personal garden at home (even though I can't keep a plant alive). I recommend trying a box for yourself. Farmer Jones, you have a lifetime customer!

Lee's story echoes mine. I have been a customer, friend, guest, speaker, advocate and surrogate storyteller for the Chef's Garden farm since the 90s. There is no greater advocate for change, health, wellness, farming, eating, cooking, and living than Lee Jones. The future of our planet is vegetables and Lee is our vanguard.

I highly recommend the subscription program as this is absolutely the BEST! So are all of their other offerings too! I’ve been subscribing for at least three years and have never been disappointed with the selection, quality, or packaging. It’s a great monthly surprise and pushes me to try new recipes from this site. Always peak freshness and robust in size and flavor. Farmer Jones and team - THANK YOU!

They always listen to us chefs, trying to understand what we want to be putting on our plates... and what we should be putting on our plates. It is a question of demand and supply - they have created this positive feedback loop with chefs. It's like a Kevin Costner movie: if you grow it, they will come.

We've ordered 3x now and absolutely love it! We share it with my daughter because you get a lot of delicious real food. When it arrived I had just started making a chicken soup and used the Farmer Jones veggies. Everyone said it was the best they ever had. The difference from store bought is clear! We made big salads with extra stuff in them. Cooked some veggies, ate some raw. All delicious! We are hooked!

You don't keep using products if you are not impressed with their consistency and quality over years and years and years and years, so, I think that is a testament to the integrity behind what goes on here that it can after all these years still be probably the best product out there.

To be inspired by the vegetables presented to us is one thing, but to know that we need 500 pieces of perfect white asparagus tomorrow is also important and both apply to your farm.

I am still overwhelmed by the amount of hospitality displayed during my visit this week. As soon as I stepped foot on the Culinary Vegetable Institute's grounds I was greeted with open arms. I left The Chef's Garden not only with a better understanding of what it takes to produce the amazing product that you all offer, but just immensely inspired overall.
