Story4 out of 5 stars 9
I want to share my life story with you as a way to help others going through a difficult situation. I realize that today many are facing financial and other major life issues. At first I went about my life, enjoying everything I had and none the wiser about how difficult things could become. However, that's when my life changed. It wasn't long after I lost my job that I found myself struggling to support my wife and our six-year-old son. I began to worry about what I was going to do and how I could possibly turn the situation around.

Growing on just one and a half acres, owners Jean-Martin and Maude-Helène feed more than 200 families through their thriving CSA and seasonal market stands and supply their signature mesclun salad mix to dozens of local establishments. The secret of their success is the low-tech, high-yield production methods they've developed by focusing on growing better rather than growing bigger, making their operation more lucrative and viable in the process.

Homesteading is something that many people don't understand, and it is all about living a self-reliant and simpler life. Many people find it a way to get back in touch with their roots and feel more fulfilled in their life. It is also a great way for many people to teach values and a work ethic to your children. Of course, that is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the benefits that homesteading can provide.

When disaster strikes, the last place you want to be is stuck in a line at the corner grocery. Having a backup food supply - or what doomsday preppers would call a survival or disaster pantry - is essential if you want to live through a disaster and its aftermath. What are Short Term Emergency Foods? There are long term emergency foods and there are short term emergency foods. Long term emergency foods are those that have long shelf lives and will sustain you indefinitely.

When he purchased four acres of land on Vashon Island, Kurt Timmermeister was only looking for an affordable home near the restaurants he ran in Seattle. But as he slowly settled into his new property, he became awakened to the connection between what he ate and where it came from: a hive of bees provided honey, a young cow could give fresh milk, an apple orchard allowed him to make vinegar.

Publisher's Summary
This book serves as your first and foremost guide to homesteading.
Homesteading is not just a new type of gardening or some fancy way of living that's currently in vogue. It is one of the most ancient methods practiced by several civilizations, as you have understood by now, and the closest way to living in harmony with nature.
The homesteading way of life was very common in the past, and people have been consistently growing fruits and vegetables in their backyards from time immemorial. The concept of raising chickens in a backyard pen is not uncommon either. While the ideas of homesteading and self-sufficiency might not be new, the ways in which homesteading is practiced have certainly undergone drastic changes.
Homesteading is a way of life and a choice you make. I understand any change comes with resistance and suspicion, especially when it requires your precious time and energy on a day-to-day basis. But I assure you the results are far reaching, and you will see the amazing results it brings to you and your family in terms of superior quality of health and thus life.
Hence, take this book only as a beginner's guide, and keep continuing your journey into homesteading and organic living with several other books and blogs. I suggest joining your local organic gardening club to share ideas and get the encouragement to continue this journey.
