This award-winning book addresses the needs of people who want to take control of the food they eat and the products they use—even if they live in an urban or suburban house on a typical-size lot.

Backyard Homesteading shows homeowners how to turn your yard into a sustainable and self-sufficient "homestead" for raising livestock and providing homegrown food including fruits, vegetables, honey, eggs, milk, and meat.

Backyard Homesteading also provides practical instructions for preserving food, making beer and wine, making soap, and more.

À propos de l?auteur

Dave Toht, a former contractor with decades of hands-on experience, fondly remembers his first house located in the sometimes frigid, sometimes frying Midwest. Built in 1854, it was loaded with opportunities for caulking, glazing, weatherstripping and insulating. He has written or edited more than 60 books on home repair and remodeling.
