The Backyard Homestead

Sometimes it's difficult to find books on a wide variety of things related to homesteading. Some are too technical, some don't have any "real" information, and many are really outdated. I finally tracked down a copy of The Backyard Homestead from the local library system, and it's a great read.

Such a cute and colorful cover too! Fear not--- it's also full of great information, and there are also plenty of demonstrative images on the inside as well.

The book is basically broken down into vegetable gardening, herb gardening, home-grown grains, meat and dairy, poultry, fruits and nuts, and wild foods like honey and mushrooms.
I'm pretty sure we're going to add this to our home library soon.
