About this listen
Are you feeling run down and burned out from living in an urban environment? Do you want to cut down on living expenses and get back in touch with nature? Do you want to know step by step when to plant, what to plant, and how to plant in your own backyard? If yes, keep reading....
According to Urbanhomestead.org you can produce approximately three tons annually (2009) on only 1/10 of an acre in an urban yard! This book is a guide for how to start a new off-the-grid property in the Northeast and make the most of homesteading practices.
In this book you will learn:
- Initial purchasing phases on your property
- How to best plan your success and the Needs that your Northeast farm will have during each of the four seasons
- Knowing your climate
- Best crops for the highest yield
- Planting best practices
- Tending and managing crops
- Building your beds
- Soil essentials
- Four-season planting game plan
- And much, much more
The Northeast can be beautiful; starting a homestead in the Northeast can come with its own challenges, especially if you are looking to live off the grid. Northeast farmers face drastic temperature changes that they must account for when they are developing a garden, and a wide range of pests and insects will be attracted to their gardens. The freezing temperatures that parts of the Northeast experience for large portions of the year also add to the challenges of starting a farm. Nevertheless, starting a homestead in the Northeast is an incredibly fulfilling process that requires time, attention to detail, and labor. This book will be your guide and walk you through the process step by step. The Northeast can be a challenging area to grow the best yields. Let my experience and expertise teach you the best practices to have the best backyard homestead on the block! So do you want to be prepared to grow in any environment and yield the best crop returns?

Permaculture is more than just a way to design gardens; it is a way of life centered around building an ecosystem that thinks and behaves just like nature. Not only does it favor reusing and recycling, but it also limits potential waste, allowing you to design a slice of nature in your own backyard. In fact, permaculture makes nature your partner in going green… And all you need to do in order to get started is open your eyes and observe.

Traditionally, greenhouses were only for the rich. But this is not the case today. You can make your own greenhouse for next to nothing…and you don’t have to be an architect! Many people assume that growing your own food requires a certain skill, but you certainly don’t have to be a gardener! What you need is reliable knowledge from someone who started with just a handful of seeds and now uses their greenhouse to make an extra income. You need a step-by-step guide to planting, pruning, and harvesting. And most of all, you need a plan!

Teaming with Microbes offers an alternative to this vicious circle and details how to garden in a way that strengthens, rather than destroys, the soil food web. You’ll discover that healthy soil is teeming with life - not just earthworms and insects, but a staggering multitude of bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms.

When we use chemical fertilizers, we injure the microbial life that sustains plants and then become increasingly dependent on an arsenal of toxic substances. Teaming with Microbes offers an alternative to this vicious circle and details how to garden in a way that strengthens, rather than destroys, the soil food web. You’ll discover that healthy soil is teeming with life - not just earthworms and insects, but a staggering multitude of bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms.

Is bourbon the quintessential American liquor? Bourbon is not just alcohol - the amber-colored drink is deeply ingrained in American culture and tangled in American history. From the early days of raw corn liquor to the myriad distilleries that have proliferated around the country today, bourbon is a symbol of the United States. This course traces bourbon's entire history, from the 1700s, with Irish, Scottish, and French settlers setting up stills and making distilled spirits in the New World, through today's booming resurgence.

A revolutionary approach to the techniques of working with horses, by a renowned instructor. In Horses Never Lie, renowned horse trainer Mark Rashid challenges the conventional wisdom of "alpha leadership" and teaches the listener to become a "passive leader" - a counterpart to the kind of horse other members of a herd choose to associate with and to follow. Applying Rashid’s principles and techniques helps cultivate horse personalities that are responsive and dependable regardless of the rider.

We live in a world of seeds. From our morning toast to the cotton in our clothes, they are quite literally the stuff and staff of life, supporting diets, economies, and civilizations around the globe. Just as the search for nutmeg and the humble peppercorn drove the Age of Discovery, so did coffee beans help fuel the Enlightenment and cottonseed help spark the Industrial Revolution. And from the fall of Rome to the Arab Spring, the fate of nations continues to hinge on the seeds of a Middle Eastern grass known as wheat.

A longtime contributor to Field and Stream, Bill Heavey knew more than a little about hunting and fishing when he embarked on an ambitious project a few years ago to see how far he could get eating wild. But Heavey knew next to nothing about gardening or foraging, and he lives in northern Virginia, close to Washington, D.C. The rural wilds, this was not. Is it any surprise that his tasty triumphs were equaled by his hilarious misadventures?
