of S. Smith (Goodreads Author)
Series: Seed Savers #1
Description
Two kids, two bikes, and an idea they can change their world.Itâs 2077. Thereâs no apocalypse, but some things are different. Things like the weather, the internet, and food. In twelve-year-old Clareâs world, blueberry is just a flavor and apples are found only in fairy tales.Then one day Clare meets an old woman who teaches her about seeds and real food. The woman (Ana) tempts Clare with the notion that food exists other than the square, processed, packaged food she has always known. Under Anaâs tutelage, Clare and her friends learn about seeds and gardening despite suspicions that such actions are illegal.When the authorities discover the childrenâs forbidden tomato plant and arrest their mother, Clare and her brother flee. Clare has heard of a place called "The Garden State," and with their bikes, a little money, and backpacks, the children begin a lonely cross-country journey that tests them both physically and spiritually. Will they succeed in their quest to find a place of food freedom? And can they, only children, help change the world?Treasure is a gentle dystopian, frightening only is the possibility that we may not be far from the future it paints.
