Chuck Sudo alerts us to the work of Kate Gross, a photographer who got started taking pictures of farms when she began working the Kinnikinnick Farm booth at Green City Market. Her images capture a gritty yet tranquil picture of everyday life on small family farms that is strangely soothing. They’ve also led her to become more and more involved with farming and with helping city folk better appreciate where their food comes from; she now has a blog, Dishes and Dirt, and is trying to launch a resource website about local food and farming called Ingather. You can bliss out with more examples of her work at Chicagoist.
