Eat Like a Farmer is a weekly newsletter with seasonal and accessible recipes, practical gardening lessons, and behind the scenes stories from our small vegetable farm in central North Carolina.
By subscribing to this newsletter, you’ll find that you don’t need to be a farmer (or even have a green thumb) to eat like one!
So… what does it mean to eat like a farmer?
it’s cooking unfussy, flavor-packed meals using seasonal ingredients
it’s getting creative, using whatever you have on hand, and reducing waste
no fancy kitchens or equipment needed
no green thumb or giant garden required
…oh, and *eating like a farmer* sometimes means whipping up some frozen pizza and eating while standing up, and that’s totally cool too :)
Even if gardening and/or cooking aren’t your vibe (which, let’s be honest, I totally get.. these are messy and wildly frustrating pursuits), but you enjoy living vicariously through stories about life on a working vegetable farm, then come on over to my proverbial front porch and watch all the ruckus unfold each week over at Farmbelly HQ.
What to expect when you subscribe?
Paid subscribers receive weekly updates (a new hyper-seasonal recipe every Friday and additional gardening lessons 1-2x per month), full access to my ever-growing Recipe Index and Garden Guides, and you’ll take part in private chat threads and receive bonus educational gardening + cooking resources.

Who’s the farmer?
Eat Like a Farmer is brought to you by me, Michelle Aronson, complete with dirty fingernails and mud-caked boots.
I’m a farmer, trained cook, and educator and I want to empower more people to grow, cook, and eat like farmers.
Reporting straight from fields at Farmbelly, our 10-acre farm in the Piedmont of North Carolina, just down the road from the funky village of Saxapahaw. Our family is made up of five blondes – me, my husband Matthew, two cute kiddos (Sawyer and Hudson), and our dog Arlo, the fluffiest goldendoodle you’ll ever meet.
Let’s get cookin, good lookin!
