North Carolina native, Marcie Cohen Ferris will be joined by her associate editor, K. C. Hysmith, to talk about her NC cookbook Edible North Carolina.

The event will be held at The Country Bookshop on Sunday, September 25th at 2pm.

Registration is required due to limited space on ticketmesandhills.com.

Marcie Cohen Ferris gathers a constellation of leading journalists, farmers, chefs, entrepreneurs, scholars, and food activists-along with photographer Baxter Miller- to offer a deeply immersive portrait of North Carolina's contemporary food landscape. Ranging from manifesto to elegy, Edible North Carolina's essays, photographs, interviews, and recipes combine for a beautifully revealing journey across the lands and waters of a state that exemplifies the complexities of American food and identity.

Marcie Cohen Ferris, author of The Edible South: The Power of Food and the Making of an American Region and Matzoh Ball Gumbo: Culinary Tales of the Jewish South, is professor emerita of American studies at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
