The author of Ecothrifty shows you how to life more
self-sufficiently with her guide to modern homesteading―no farm
required. Food recalls, dubious health claims, scary and shocking
ingredients in health and beauty products. Our increasingly
industrialized supply system is becoming more difficult to
navigate, more frightening, and more frustrating, leaving us
feeling stuck choosing in many cases between the lesser of several
evils. That's why author Deborah Niemann is here to offer
healthier, more empowering choices, by showing us how to reclaim
links in our food and purchasing chains, to make choices that are
healthier for our families, ourselves, and our planet. In this
fully updated and revised edition of Homegrown and Handmade,
Deborah shows how making things from scratch and growing some of
your own food can help you eliminate artificial ingredients from
your diet, reduce your carbon footprint, and create a more
authentic life. Whether your goal is increasing your self-reliance
or becoming a full-fledged homesteader, this book is packed with
answers and solutions to help you rediscover traditional skills,
take control of your food from seed to plate, and much more. This
comprehensive guide to food and fiber from scratch proves that
attitude and knowledge is more important than acreage. Written from
the perspective of a successful, self-taught modern homesteader,
this well-illustrated, practical, and accessible manual will appeal
to anyone who dreams of a more empowered life. "Dreaming of a
mindful life? Niemann's advice on gardening, cooking, orcharding,
raising livestock, and much more demonstrates that it's possible to
begin the journey in your own backyard." —Rebecca Martin,
