We all want more air in our lives. Brighter skies, slower days, more time for growing, for cooking, for family.

Join Matthew Evans in conversation with Bianca Welsh (Stillwater Co-Owner) at Petrarch's Bookshop as they discuss The Commons, a book inspired by the hit SBS television show Gourmet Farmer, Matthew Evans captures Fat Pig Farm’s year of growing, cooking and feasting.

It’s part how-to, part evocative diary, part cookbook (with more than 100 recipes). It’s the perfect inspiration for those about to embark on a simpler life, a handy reference for those who already have done just that, and a vicarious solution for those who just want to dream the dream without leaving home.

There will be an opportunity to ask some questions as well as get you Matthew Evan's book's signed.
