This is a tale of a self-reliant farmer and his family who depend on the goods they grow and the animals they raise to live contently throughout the seasons of New England.
On the day of the big game at Nuthatcher Farm, Rooster is sure that buffalo wings would be the perfect snack for the football-watching frenzy. But Rooster doesn't quite follow the directions, and before you can say "touchdown!" he is heading west in search of a certain missing ingredient.
