Publisher's Summary

Have you always wanted to become more self-reliant and move away from supermarket buying and dependence on the commercial energy grid?

Do you have dreams of a barnyard full of happy, healthy livestock that can feed your family, provide value-added products, teach your children about responsibility and the food chain, and give you years of companionship and joy?

If you’ve thought about this and never knew where to get started, then you need The Ultimate Guide to Homesteading!

In this book, you’ll be given a primer on:

  • designing, building, and maintaining a vegetable garden
  • the basics of orchard and berry patch planting and care
  • how to use greenhouses to extend your growing season
  • preserving your fruit and vegetable harvest for the off-season
  • choosing, purchasing, and caring for livestock for meat, dairy, eggs, and fiber
  • exploring alternate energy solutions to save money and reduce reliance on the grid

The Ultimate Guide to Homesteading is a valuable resource for learning about growing, freezing, canning, and storing fruits, vegetables, and herbs to feed your family year-round. You’ll also discover the amazing possibilities open to you when you raise livestock for food and fiber, including information on co-ops, choosing a butcher or slaughterhouse, and how best to house and feed your animals. The last section of this easy-to-read instructional guide will give you a glimpse into the world of renewable energy, with tips on wood-burning and woodlot management, the wonders of solar, geothermal, and wind energy, and much more!

If you want to transition yourself, your family, and your property from dependence to independence, then The Ultimate Guide to Homesteading can get you started today! All you need is this book and the determination to create a self-reliant, sustainable, environmentally conscious future for you and for generations to come.
