The Weekend Homesteader is organized by month—so whether it’s January or June you’ll find exciting, short projects that you can use to dip your toes into the vast ocean of homesteading without getting overwhelmed. If you need to fit homesteading into a few hours each weekend and would like to have fun while doing it, these projects will be right up your alley, whether you live on a forty-acre farm, a postage-stamp lawn in suburbia, or a high rise. You'll learn about backyard chicken care, how to choose the best mushroom and berry species, and why and how to plant a no-till garden that heals the soil while providing nutritious food. Permaculture techniques will turn your homestead into a vibrant ecosystem and attract native pollinators while converting our society's waste into high-quality compost and mulch. Meanwhile, enjoy the fruits of your labor right away as you learn the basics of cooking and eating seasonally, then preserve homegrown produce for later by drying, canning, freezing, or simply filling your kitchen cabinets with storage vegetables. As you become more self-sufficient, you'll save seeds, prepare for power outages, and tear yourself away from a full-time job, while building a supportive and like-minded community. You won't be completely eliminating your reliance on the grocery store, but you will be plucking low-hanging (and delicious!) fruits out of your own garden by the time all forty-eight projects are complete.

Delicious in-season recipes by the author of The Weekend Homesteader!Did you ever join a CSA and then drown in bushels of kale and sweet potatoes? Or perhaps you're a homesteader who finally plucked up your courage and learned to pluck a chicken...then couldn't figure out how to serve meat that is more flavorful, but also tougher, than grocery-store offerings. Perhaps you'd like to eat seasonally in order to cut back on your carbon footprint or to save some cash. Or maybe you were drawn to homegrown produce after converting over to a paleo diet and learning that cabbages and butternut squash from your garden are easy to substitute into recipes that called for pasta. No matter where your personal food journey has taken you, Farmstead Feast will introduce you to the ever-changing delicacies of a menu that reflects the uniqueness of each season of the year. In this spring edition, you'll learn to wildcraft dandelions and wild garlic, will explore four unique and delicious recipes to use up spring's bountiful eggs, and will follow maple and birch syrup from the tree to the table. Then, in the end, when your family doesn't realize that there's anything special about these recipes beyond their splendid flavor...that's when you've really won the food battle and served a farmstead feast!
