I want to make everything from this cookbook!”
–Tieghan Gerard, Half Baked Harvest
Arranged around 17 themed menus for favorite family events and activities, Five Marys Family Style takes the reader on a journey through the seasons and customs that drive life on the ranch.
Featuring more than 75 rustic, hearty recipes, inside readers will discover the Heffernan family’s Thanksgiving and Christmas traditions, menus for a cozy fireside dinner, a summer cookout, a pack-ahead picnic, or an end-of-week taco fiesta. Sprinkled throughout the book are simple, crafty DIY projects that Mary and her four daughters have fun making together, including indigo-dyed tea towels, flower-filled holiday table runners, and hand-rolled beeswax candles.
Along the way, Mary shares stories of life on the ranch as well as the faithful traditions and strong connections she maintains with her extended family. Lush photography captures the expansive beauty of the ranch, the animals, including dogs, cats, and horses, and of course, Mary and her beloved husband and ranching co-partner, Brian.

"Heffernan (Five Marys Ranch Raised Cookbook) returns with more recipes from her Northern California ranch. As expected, many recipes are meat-centered and mouth-watering. The book is organized by seasons and further divided into menus for complete meals. . . The recipes are clearly written and nearly all are accompanied by photographs. Additional DIY guides add to the cookbook's homestead flavor."
