Description:
From Hot Buttermilk Biscuits and Sweet Potato Pie to Salmon Cakes on Pepper Rice and Gullah Fish Stew, Gullah Geechee food is an essential cuisine of American history. It is the culinary representation of the ocean, rivers, and rich fertile loam in and around the coastal South. From the Carolinas to Georgia and Florida, this is where descendants of enslaved Africans came together to make extraordinary food, speaking the African Creole language called Gullah Geechee.
In this groundbreaking and beautiful cookbook, Matthew Raiford pays homage to this cuisine that nurtured his family for seven generations. In 2010, Raiford's Nana handed over the deed to the family farm to him and his sister, and Raiford rose to the occasion, nurturing the farm that his great-great-great grandfather, a freed slave, purchased in 1874. In this collection of heritage and updated recipes, he traces a history of community and family brought together by food.

Finally!! This is quality!!
Color: Ivory, Size: 2' x 6' (Double Pelt), Color: Ivory, Size: 2' x 6' (Double Pelt)
I’ve ordered three brands claiming to be luxury sheepskin rugs. I’m returning two today. THIS is the one!! So happy, I just ordered three more . I’m returning two from another brand and I won’t mention their name. Side by side there’s no comparison. The back of this rug is stitched around the edges where the other rugs have raw edges. The other rugs felt OK, but not very soft and really full of static. THIS rug feel silky soft and is noticeably longer and more dense. The other brands I ordered were a little over an inch long(fur). THIS rug ‘s fur is approx 3” long and dense. Sooo silky and plush. The only downside -and the company actually sent a guide, explaining it… is there is a slight yellow tinge. The other rugs are flat out yellow. This company explains that bright white would include toxins like formaldehyde and bleaching powder. So I’m fine w that. Just don’t put it against a bright white wall or fireplace. Otherwise it’s not noticeable. I’m sure I’ll be buying even more to put throughout my home. I could not be happier with this!!! They understood the assignment❤️❤️❤️- also- the price. About the same as the lesser rugs that are going back. LOVE. Puppy does too🤣
Ok. I came back to edit my review. Still positive. I apparently ordered ivory not white. I have two white ones coming Sunday so will report back and show color comparison. I was saying that the white isn’t white white and the company does explain what that entails. Other companies selling same color are VERY yellow and this isn’t. Also no strong smell to it. 👍

Very nice
Color: Ivory, Size: 2' x 6' ((Double Pelt) Patchwork), Color: Ivory, Size: 2' x 6' ((Double Pelt) Patchwork)
Very fast shipping and for the price a nice rug. Has a slight natural odor (not bad) because my dog keeps burying his nose in it and despite me telling him no, he keeps trying to claim it for his bed while stretching out on it. But the odor is nothing that won't go away with a little time and is not too bad. plush enough but not extremely so as I expected for the price point. I'm happy with it. I may order another in a different color, because this is a little whiter than I anticipated. But it is gorgeous and soft. Update, first two white ones came very fast , third which was light brown took nearly a month to get here but is even more gorgeous than the white ones maybe because it was shipped in a huge cavernous box and appeared to come from a different distribution center than the others . See second photo for reference. No odor to speak of on this one and very full . I love it as it is lighter than the online photos and more of the creamy brown that I was hoping for . While waiting for it was frustrating because it took so long , I finally got it and am so very happy with it.

AMAZING!
Color: Ivory, Size: 2' x 3' (Single Pelt)
Absolutely amazing and fast shipping, the fur is so thick and fluffy I almost don't want to use it for what I'm using it for, I love it so much, going to use it on top of my bareback pad on my horse to absorbe impaction and give the nomadic saddle pad look! More than happy with it and may order another!

Good Quality for what you pay
Color: Golden Yellow, Size: 2' x 6' (Double Pelt)
I 24/7 'researched the heck out of Sheepskin Blk Fri DEALS, this was the best for the money.
I had a feeling this Long-Hair version of Sheepskin rug /piece was possibly not quite the same as stuff I bought in the early '90s...from an ACTUAL Sheep Farm -not the curly densely-packed Lambskin, more the '70's 'Shag-Rug' version.
Still- I LIKE IT. It's very WARM & seems to be made well even tho the backing is a trimmed down version of true leather. I use it as a large pad under my easy chair.
I got the YELLOW, worried the dye might affect the function but no- it did not and tbh- the Yellow is kind of awesome! A soft glowy SUNNY yellow good to blast you out of Winter DULL!
I'm NOT going to attempt to wash this. Brush it- yes. I will get it Dry-cleaned when needed.
I DO recommend this Sheepskin.

Hard to say if genuine or faux.
Color: Light Brown, Size: 2' x 3' (Single Pelt), Color: Light Brown, Size: 2' x 3' (Single Pelt)
I was really debating between two brands and decided to get this one since it had more good sounding reviews. I received it and now I'm not 100% sure if this is REAL sheep or just a really well done Faux. I trimmed a few pieces from this rug and my Faux one I got from ROSS and they both bubbled up exactly the same way when burned...But the rug I got from Ross is so much softer and smoother, but the backing is different in the Ross one and definitely a cotton material compared to this Amazon one which is slightly stiff but more suede looking. I also felt a real sheep rug earlier this week (and was what made me interested in buying one—but I wasn't interested in the price tag of the one from the store I found. However, the one at the store even had a tag on the corner stating "Genuine New Zealand Sheep Skin"). I just wish this had a stamp or tag somewhere or something on the piece stating it's "Genuine" like most authentic leather/fur goods have. It is fluffy and soft—but so is my faux rug from ROSS. This piece does have those curls/coils that make it seem more dense and like an actual sheep's coat. It might just be a REALLY low quality product that they're trying to market in an enticing manner. Even the backing looks like cheap cardboard like someone else stated. Either way, most likely keeping it since the price was alot less than the cost of the one I found at the store and I like the creamy beige color I ordered because it gives a more natural look than the stark white fur I originally found.
Regardless, it's for my Dog, so I'm not too bothered and if it gets messed up and mangled it won't be such a big deal.
Odor in the one I got just smelled like a sheep that's been in the sun all day and dissipated pretty quickly/got covered up once I sprayed it with my dog's fragrance/refresh spray. Creased up from the packaging but nothing a little brushing and shaking couldn't fix.
I hope this helped inform you before you purchased.
PS: They did send samples of a "Faux" Fur AND "Real" Fur which I thought was kind of neat but the sample coulda been from an actual good quality real fur compared to what they sent...Who knows?
