CHRISTINE CHITNIS is a writer, photographer, mother, and home cook, who lives with her husband and two young sons in Providence, Rhode Island. Her writing and photography are inspired by the farmland and coasts of her adopted home state, though her love of the natural world dates back to childhood summers spent in northern Michigan. Her writing has appeared in Country Living, the Boston Globe, and Edible Rhody, among many other local and national publications. Christine's first book, Markets of New England (The Little Bookroom, 2011), highlights fifty of the most unique and vibrant farmers' markets and art events in the region.
