    Colorful Pictures and Graphics For Every Recipe

    Our goal for this cookbook was to make it visually appealing, with colorful photos or graphics accompanying every recipe. We wanted to steer clear of a boring black and white design.
    Self-published & Printed in the USA

    Self-published & Printed in the USA

    We decided to self-publish our book in the United States rather than outsourcing it to China for printing. We wanted to ensure that our book is made with the utmost care and attention to detail. We hope this extra effort reflects our commitment to providing you with a high-quality product.

    Thank you, Krista and Sky, for pouring your hearts into such a wonderful masterpiece! Everything about your cookbook is simply magnificent-from the fabulous recipes, to the colorful pages and illustrations, to the seasonal guidelines, to the helpful tips! Initially, I bought copies to give as gifts; however, I am thrilled that I decided to get one for myself. Your hard work, time and creative energies are deeply appreciated! What a treasure of a cookbook! Again, thank you!

    This cookbook is incredibly comprehensive and informative. I never considered making my own ketchup! The recipes are easy to follow and delicious. I thoroughly enjoy planning my meals by the seasons per their suggestions. Thank you Krista and Skyler!

    I reserved a copy of  "Wellness Simplified - The Everyday Seasonal Cook" as soon as I heard about it.  Then I had to wait for the holidays to actually get it from my family who know how much the education from FGF means to me.  It was well worth the wait!!!  I have tons of notes and recipes from all of their classes, but ... The book is great - makes it so much easier having it all in one place AND there are new recipes!  It's a great companion to "Wellness Simplified - Herbalism From The Ground Up" and is organized seasonally the same way.   Forrest Green Farm Rocks! This book is a must-have for anyone who's interested in whole living! If you can, consider taking their classes. You won't regret it!

    I am loving this cookbook, it is beautiful with colorful graphics and pictures and easy to follow instructions. There are nutritional basics that are easy to understand, guidance for buying healthy whole foods, how to eat seasonally, and so much more. Thanks Krista and Sky!

    I met Skyler at a Homesteaders Of America event in 2022. It was the first I had heard of Forrest Green Farms. I love books and quickly purchased their first Book Herbalism From The Ground Up. That night back at my hotel I had time to read the book and was so impressed by how much information about herbs they got into one book. I ordered The Everyday Seasonal Cookbook as soon as it was available with 12 of their herb packets. Anyone interested in being self-sufficient or just being knowledgeable in plants and food should buy both these books for their bookshelf. I already know a lot and have tons of books already but find both Wellness Simplified books to be a great addition. I really appreciate that Krista and Skyler also published these themselves and printed them in the USA! Keep up the good work and thank you to your family.

    I love this cookbook! It is much more than a cookbook, it has so much additional information and inspires you to pursue a healthier lifestyle. It is done beautifully and you can sense the love that Krista and Skye put into it! It is the perfect companion to the Wellness Simplified book, too!

    Kim MusickDec 21, 2022 - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    I have been waiting for this cookbook and it's finally here! I couldn't be happier with the way it's written. I loved learning about seasonal eating and the things your body needs at the different times of the year. This cookbook is a gem! I bought a few for Christmas gifts. I think everyone needs to have one. Thanks Krista and Skyler

    This cookbook is great. It’s so much more than a cookbook with all the helpful tips and information. I love how organized it is and the variations based on time or abilities, supplies! I bought another one for my sister as a gift! I can’t wait to give it to her.

    Ann GastoukianDec 19, 2022 - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    This seasonal cookbook is wonderful as a companion to the previous Wellness Simplified herb book.

    From the basic guide through the kitchen and nourishing ingredients, to the tasty healthy recipes for each season, this cookbook reinforces that wholesome eating can be well seasoned and delicious.

    Can't wait to try recipes from this cookbook through the year using my garden as a resource for healthful ingredients.

    Barbara LegazDec 5, 2022 - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    I enjoyed the book. It is very comprehensive. The front of the book goes through different techniques of cooking and variations of the same foods.
    Being an herb-type person I am thrilled with the recipes that were selected using other herbs (shiso, gota kola, nettle etc.) for culinary use instead of the standard cooking herbs (basil, oregan, etc.) Although they are also included in the recipes. The format of the book is easy to use and very colorful. Many pictures are included so you know what it should look like when you finish making it. (not always the case when I cook - sometimes my pies turn out to be puddings). I look forward to giving this book as a gift to people I know will enjoy them, not only for health benefits, but also for taste.
