    This is by far the worst attempt at a real life show I’ve seen. That ruddy face cook ain’t nothing but a phony with some pony.. Straight terrible programming.

      I absolutely love the show! It’s not only educational but it’s so entertaining. I’ve dined at Chef ad the Farmer twice and the food was so delicious! Can’t wait for the cook book to come out!

    Am registering to receive a case of the Slawsa so that I can allow my family members as well as myself to test it. Sounds good….

    Your recent magazine mentioned a BEach Pie and that the recipe was available on the website at ncfieldfamily.org/beachpie. I went there but was unable to locate the recipe.

    Will you send it to me please?

    When people say hurtful things, Vivian, they are just plain jealous!
    Keep up the good work. My husband loves your show too. Love your recipes. Glad you came back to good ole North Carolina!

    My husband got me started watching the Chef and the Farmer in North Carolina. We are planning a visit to the restaurant in the future. Not only have I enjoyed such a down to earth family who has allowed us to come into their life and enjoy their take on receipes, but also their ups and downs. And so educational!! I truly admire Vivian’s Christian mother who I enjoy watching. I always look forward to the next show! And my sisters in OHIO love you too!!!!! To all those negative critics….. if ya don’t like don’t watch……

    We just recently went to The Chef and the Farmer and had a wonderful meal. One of the items that we enjoyed was the brussel sprout gratin. I sure would like the recipe for this. We also had the butter bean hummus with pickled collard stems and I was able to hunt that recipe down. Thanks in advance if you don’t mind.

    I came across Vivian’s kitchen programs and fell absolutely in love with her style of cooking, as I was reared in upper Florida next to the James River: she cooks like my Aunt Vida whom I lived with periodically eighty years ago and we cooked on a wood stove.
    (I read a comment that she was a phony, how wrong and misguided this person is)
    It was so inspiring to see the actual people that made her recipes come alive featuring the actual process the vegetables, dairy, meat and pork were grown and processed.
    My admiration for her, husband Ben, their twins, family, and many, many friends.
