A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur

After a lifetime of cosmopolitan living, the jaunt from veteran educator to accomplished writer came serendipitously for Sarah L. Roussos when she and her family moved to a rural town in Loudoun County, Virginia and purchased a ten-acre farm. With the move came the culture shock of realizing that groceries and malls were far removed and it would become paramount to learn to become a good farmer or become very accomplished at seeking out exceptional growers and providers. Almost immediately, she became known as the "Herb Lady" growing enough to launch her company Green Alchemy Herb & Mercantile Company which piqued her interest in selling her teas and herbal products through regional Farmer Markets. Eventually, Ms. Roussos saw great potential in creating stronger viable links between regional producers, national groceries and high-profi le restaurants. In time, Ms. Roussos and her husband, Peter, established Agro-Depot Farmer-Direct Markets assisting farmers and producers in selling their goods at traditional Agro-Depot farmer markets, to chefs, and through a seasonal ordering catalog, year-round. The Agro-Depot Markets were showcased by Discovery Communications, Dow Lowens Corporation, and Les Dames de Escoffi er. Ms. Roussos has also had the privilege of participating as a writer for the national publication, Tea Room Magazine, offering a regular stream of articles pertaining to the humor and honesty associated with celebrities, food, and the business conducted while sipping tea. She has had the unique privilege of interviewing struggling farmers, enthusiastic foodies, and a slew of celebrity chefs and notables, all with delightful stories about their personal experiences with food. Food Gypsies of Lovejoy is the fi rst in a series of novels chronicling the "agri-preneurial" journey of food from the fi eld to the fork in small-town America.
