Eating New England

A Food Lover's Guide to Eating Locally, from the Traditional to the Unexpected

Juliette Rogers and Barbara Radcliffe Rogers

New England food traditions go deeper than clambakes and baked bean suppers: today the region is a major source of organically grown farm produce and specialty foods. Juliette and Barbara Rogers uncover the best traditional, ethnic, and gourmet specialties in the six New England states. Divided geographically and cross-referenced by product, Eating New England showcases the highest quality, no matter how obscure the location. The authors emphasize not just finding a particular ingredient or product, but putting it in context by showing travelers where to learn about its history, and where to see it being made.

  • Find pasture-raised beef and lamb and free-range chicken and eggs

  • Pick heirloom apples in Vermont, pumpkins in New Hampshire, and blueberries in Maine

  • Visit cider mills and microbreweries

  • Sample fresh maple syrup

  • Discover the best clam shacks on Narragansett Bay

  • Find rare Portuguese mountain cheeses in Providence

  • Catch the herring run on Cape Cod

  • Taste fresh farmstead goat cheese
  • "An absolutely indispensable book, both edifying and intriguing. . . . Every state should have a book like this."
    —David Hughes, Manager, New York City's Union Square Greenmarket
