Heather and I just returned home from a trip to southern France where we had some amazing adventures! We visited the lavender fields of Provence, drove around the countryside and sampled so much delicious food! One of our favorites was a chickpea flatbread called socca. It’s so easy to make, we went and bought all of the ingredients as soon as we got home! You can find our recipe for this traditional delight on our Patreon page: www.patreon.com/smallhousefarm
