The Backyard Homestead

Price $18.95

The Backyard Homestead is one of the most practical guides to self-sufficient living on only 1/4 acre of land that you will ever find. If you can do this on 1/4 acre, just imagine what you can do with a little more, or a lot more, room. The point though, is that it is possible, with very little space, to feed a family of four entirely from your own backyard. And it is not only about raising vegetables, fruits, herbs and grains. This invaluable guide covers everything from raising chickens for eggs and meat to keeping honey bees. Raise goats, cows or sheep for milk and meat and learn how to preserve what you grow or raise, making everything from herbal teas to yogurt, cheese and butter. In a good economy, self-sustaining living means a bigger savings account; in a poor economy it can mean so much more.
