--Daniel Boulud, Chef / Restaurateur
"Tim Stark is the poet laureate of the nightshade and of Eastern Pennsylvania; his tomatoes and peppers burst on the mind's palate as his native landscape comes to shaley, fecund life under his hands. "Heirloom "is clearly descended from Montaigne and M. F. K. Fisher; it takes its place grandly among the literature of passionate obsessives."
--Kate Christensen, author of "The Great Man
""This is the Tim Stark I've known for more than a decade: one-fourth farmer, one-fourth storyteller, and half mad. He tells it like it is."
--Dave Pasternack, Chef / Owner of Esca and author of "The Young Man and the Sea
""Successful farming in the twenty-first century is about connecting with all sorts of people, and Tim Stark's gift is his ability to convey these connections. Whether he is bantering with a farmer's market customer or accepting a free meal from a five-star chef, the spark of necessary human interaction comes through effortlessly in his prose."
--Dan Sullivan, senior editor of The Rodale Institute
