Samenvatting:
A gardening book for anyone who’s dreamed of going back to the land for a simpler life… After two city-bred Boomers weather their first, tumultuous year on their rural backyard farm, they discover their homesteading journey has only begun.
The sequel to Susan Colleen Browne's award-winning memoir, Little Farm in the Foothills, Little Farm Homegrown follows modern homesteaders Susan and her husband John creating a "homegrown" life in the foothills of the Pacific Northwest.
In this lively true story, John and Susan discover the joys of homesteading while raising chickens and pursuing a self-sufficient lifestyle. They face adversity as well, learning they must adapt to—and often battle—nature.
You'll also find tips for caring for your laying hens, maintaining your homestead, and growing your food crops sustainably.
Like the first Little Farm in the Foothills memoir, Little Farm Homegrown is a warmhearted tale for gardeners, nature-lovers, and dreamers of all ages!
