Keeping hens in your backyard is a rewarding hobby for a variety of reasons. The eggs are a delectable temptation, they are tastier and more fresh than any eggs that can be purchased in a supermarket, and they are also superior for use in baking. Even though keeping chickens may sound like a delightful hobby, the majority of individuals who are interested in beginning their own flock simply do not know how to get started.

Although modern aquaponics is still fairly new, it was used in ancient times. Some of the first examples are thought to be islands where plants raised with water and other materials from the Chinampa canals. The islands, known as Chinampas, were mainly stationary, but some were movable. Also, rice was raised in Thailand and China in paddies, which also contained fish. Other Far Eastern countries also raised fish - swamp eels, regular and crucian carp, and Oriental loach - in rice paddies.

Traditionally, greenhouses were only for the rich. But this is not the case today. You can make your own greenhouse for next to nothing…and you don’t have to be an architect! Many people assume that growing your own food requires a certain skill, but you certainly don’t have to be a gardener! What you need is reliable knowledge from someone who started with just a handful of seeds and now uses their greenhouse to make an extra income. You need a step-by-step guide to planting, pruning, and harvesting. And most of all, you need a plan!

EASIEST UPBEAT READ/LISTEN
I appreciate the sheer joy in the narrators tone. it encourages me to listen and get motivated in w work while it's cold when is rather be under covers. Coming from NYC, I find this book takes the nervous energy or of handling chicks into adulthood and even more self esteem to process without mistakenly massacres of the poultry. HEY! I'm from NYC - "WE KILLERS OUT HERE"! NOW, I'm dedicated to "killing the game"! Thank you and I hope to catch your next book. Keep writing, you're a natural. plus, it's urban folk re-migrating back to the country life need all the help we can get!
