Award-winning cookbook author Klancy Miller started The Picnic Project-a series of intimate outdoor gatherings in New York and London-to reconnect with friends, celebrate seasonal meals, and embrace the simple pleasure of being present. Inspired by these memorable meals, this beautiful cookbook invites you to pick a shady spot, lay down your blanket, and gather your loved ones for a picnic, too.
