"Sam Beall's heartfelt words and the beautiful images took me back to my first visit--to the Bealls' incredible hospitality and the delicious meals they nurtured us with. I am excited that Blackberry Farm continues to evolve into an idyllic destination, grounded by its own sense of place and history." -Thomas Keller,The French Laundry "Hospitality, generosity, authenticity, quality, family...Life has stopped and our stress disappears at Blackberry Farm. The food and wine reveal the best of nature. Happiness is what can be found here." -Alain Ducasse,Alain Ducasse at the Plaza AthénéeandLouis XV - Alain Ducasse "Like Blackberry Farm itself, this book is a celebration of the South and a family dream, deliciously realized.
