From Peter Wohlleben, the New York Times-bestselling author of The
Hidden Life of Trees, and his wife, Miriam, comes an inspired,
practical memoir of creating a sustainable homestead amongst the
trees. Called "a veritable tree whisperer" by the Wall Street
Journal, Peter Wohlleben is known across the world for his
illuminating books about forests and how to help them thrive. Now,
the German forester invites readers into his home for the first
time in Our Little Farm, describing the steps he and his wife,
Miriam, have taken to live sustainably and in harmony with nature.
Peter and Miriam moved from the city to a remote forest lodge in
the early nineties. Amidst juggling careers and raising a young
family, they learned how to plant and rotate crops, harvest and
preserve nature's bounty, and tend to the unique needs of their
animals and environment. Along the way, they made mistakes and
abandoned some projects (sheep raising was not their thing) but
maintained a sense of joy in their shared goal. Brimming with
insights, wisdom, and tips on everything from constructing farm
buildings to choosing the perfect chicken, Our Little Farm shows
that, with a little grit, humor, and self-compassion, it's possible
to live according to our values and to care for the earth even as
we care for ourselves, our homes, and our families. Published in
partnership with the David Suzuki Institute.
