Unpasteurized Inga: Recipes and Reflections on Food, Farming, and Finding Your Way Back
Book Talk and Cooking Demonstration
"I’m Inga, a fourth-generation dairy farmer, licensed Wisconsin cheesemaker, and co-owner of St. Isidore’s Dairy. For years, I was the host of a national farm-to-table television series. On camera, it looked like I was living the dream. Behind the scenes? I was silently unraveling. Burnout, people-pleasing, and unhealed family patterns nearly took me down. I had to step away from the life I’d built to finally figure out who I really was — and what I wanted to fight for.Now, I speak honestly and unapologetically about mental health, boundaries, and burnout in rural life."
During this special morning, Inga not only shares from her new memoir, but will cook us delicous polenta using local ingredients.
