Rating:
Summary: Down to Earth
Review: Pragmatic, expert advice for anyone owning (or planning to own) a small farm. Good for those going into homesteading with everything from buying land to organic growing methods and selling cash crops.

Rating:
Summary: A dreamers book with few details
Review: The book started off getting me real excited about sustainable farming. I was eager to turn the page and learn more, but as i turned the page, nothing materialized. I learned a lot about soil health and management, but when it got around to details about specific vegetables, growing seasons, and pest prevention, the book was lacking.

Rating:
Summary: No b.s, uh....manure!
Review: This book is for people who either live and farm in the country already, or have some realastic experience about what it is to work for a living. Anyone who has ever tried to bring in a crop, will appreciate the down-to-earth basic information provided. If you are looking for information about how to make a pretty garden, look elsewhere. this is a not to be missed reference, right up there with your county extension agent's telephone number.
