The Wiley Canning Company Cookbook is now available to order.
The Wiley Canning Company Cookbook is a guide to home food preservation rooted in seasonality, education, and family. I focus equally on seasonal recipes and the foundational knowledge required to preserve food with a sharp intuition and holistic understanding. No matter where you live—a downtown high-rise, suburban bungalow, or countryside ranch—these recipes are for you. In fact, most recipes were created using produce from local farmers’ markets in Nashville, Tennessee. As you use this cookbook, you will become a steward of your local land, farms, and home.

Delicious ingredients lead to delicious meals. This is true for a meal. This is true for a life.
When we have a single ingredient that is homemade and precise—like freshly-canned, locally-grown tomatoes or an in-season Peach Jam—we can create an entire meal that awakens our hearts and minds, one that sends a tingle through our jaw as we take our first bite. Simply, the goal of this book is to, again and again, provide a single ingredient that elevates your meal for yourself, your family, and all who are fortunate to gather around your table. It is to provide a single ingredient that carefully inoculates your meal with rich history and a meaningful story. I believe in this book with all that I am. I believe we are the living and breathing accumulation of the single ingredients we invite into our homes and lives.
The foreword was written by Caroline Randall Williams, Nashville-based author, chef, activist, teacher, and personal role model. It is stunning. When I read it, I shouted, “This is IT.” Her words could not be truer. Caroline’s foreword, the essay that opens this body of work, has planted my feet in fortune and bone-deep gratitude since the day it was written.
This book is everything I needed to be the best woman, partner, mother, and artist I could be when at times I felt completely lost. I am forever grateful to Matthew Teague of Blue Hills Press for taking a chance on me.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
