Description
A handbook that explains how to reap the harvest, respect the land, stay healthy, and waste nothing. The first chapters of this book include how to prepare land for crops, grow vegetables and fruit in your garden, rear livestock, and forage in the wild. It also includes information on how to store your own harvest properly, bake bread, make jam, and brew beer to keep your cupboards stocked in the less fertile months. There are ways to generate power from wind, sun, and water, and how to recycle and reduce waste.
