While many recipes use maple syrup or cheese, you will find lots of traditional New England recipes for everything from apple pie to zucchini casserole. Along with the usual categories of appetizers, soups and salads, vegetables and side dishes, main dishes, bread and rolls, desserts, cakes and candies.

There are special pages on serving suggestions for cheese, what it takes to make a gallon of pure Vermont Maple Syrup, the history of Sugarbush Farm, planning a cheese party, line drawings of the maple sugaring process and some of the Luce's best loved farming poems. The 124 page book with a spiral binding allows it to lie flat on your counter.
