Learn how to live sustainably in the city, the suburbs, or the country
Many people are cutting back on consumerism and trying to simplify their lives, realizing that the "new way" isn't necessarily the best way. The sustainable living movement goes beyond a desire to protect the environment and practice green living; it's about rediscovering simple survival skills that, in an earlier time, were known and practiced by almost everyone.
The New American Homestead gives you a wealth of information about homesteading—a lifestyle of simple, agrarian self-sufficiency—from raising chickens, bees, and other animals to gardening in earth-friendly ways to canning, preserving, home brewing, and cheese making. The book does not assume that you have a sizable parcel of land in the country; author John Tullock's techniques can be put to use in virtually any space, even a small urban plot.
Whether you're dwelling in the country, suburbs, or the city, The New American Homestead shows you how to live a more sustainable life.
Leave the tweeting to the birds . . . and enjoy a more sustainable life
There's a lot we can learn from previous generations. The New American Homestead teaches you simple survival skills that, in an earlier time, were known and practiced by almost everyone. You can join the new breed of American homesteaders with a different concept of "living well" in a city, town, or suburb, a concept based not on consumption but on self-sufficiency, not on reckless extravagance but on thrift, and not on the rat race so much as on, perhaps, the catnap.
This book teaches you how to:
Make wise choices in the design, planting, and maintenance of your residential space, regardless of its size or location
Produce your own food
Integrate vegetables, herbs, and fruits with locally native species and surrogates that contribute to the restoration of the local ecosystem
Acquire a deeper understanding of the continuously evolving "livingscape" that you create for yourself, and of its relationship to the ecosystem that nourishes and sustains all life
Use your space in the sun to manage health problems, earn supplemental income, and calm frazzled nerves
