Mini Farming: Self-Sufficiency on 1/4 Acre
By Brett L. Markham.
Published 2010.
ISBN-10: 1602399840
ISBN-13: 978-1602399846
Description:
Here is a holistic
approach to small-area farming that will show you how to produce 85 percent of
an average family’s food on just one quarter acre – and earn $10,000 in cash
annually. This is not back-to-the-land utopianism, but a tested and pragmatic
method that can be applied in small lots in rural, suburban, and even urban
areas. Even if you have never been a farmer or a gardener, Brett Markham’s
advice will teach you what you need to know:
Saving, buying, starting,
and selecting seeds.
Maintaining and
improving soil.
Preventing and
eradicating pests and diseases.
Compost, crop rotation,
and timing.
Using organic methods.
Garden planning to meet
dietary requirements.
Raising poultry.
Raising and pruning
fruits and nuts.
Canning, freezing, and
dehydrating.
Selling your excess and
produce for top dollar.
And more!
More
than just a how-to guide for self-sufficiency, Mini Farming teaches you
the underlying principles of mini farming so you will have the knowledge to
make you own unique applications. Materials, tools, and techniques are detailed
with over a hundred photographs, tables, diagrams, and illustrations.
Ann Patchett, on writing:
I craft everything in
the beginning.
I know where the characters are going before I start writing the
book.
