Text by Martha A. Solomon, Photography by Frank Barnett
Jesse Sampson is not a catch-and-release kind of guy. He's a catch-and-serve-it-up-with-a-nice-Pinot-noir kind of guy. He's also a serious locavore – someone who prefers to eat food that is locally produced or foraged. Photographer Frank Barnett and writer Martha Solomon spent a day on the river with Jesse, followed by the fantastic dinner he prepared at his farmstead.
