You're spending at least 10 percent of your monthly income on food that you can actually grow in your backyard. Highest-quality organic vegetables, flavorful freshly picked herbs and mouth-watering fruit - you can have all of these for free.  

Don't you think your backyard is a waste of time and space right now? Well, then transform it into a garden that produces thousands of dollars' worth of food every year. This audiobook will show you exactly how to do it - from planning your new backyard homestead to enjoying your first harvest.  

This audiobook will help you: 

  • Transform your boring backyard into a lush garden full of your favorite veggies and fruit. 
  • Keep your plants happy and healthy with organic gardening tricks that pro gardeners swear by.

Underwhelming.

Found this to be awash with misinformation and in some instances downright scaremongery.
Could not make it more than half way through, due to the above..
Disappointing.
If you’re new to homesteading - please take this book with a large dose of awareness and scepticism and if something doesn’t feel right about what’s being said, research further.
