Publisher's summary
You can grow your own fruits and vegetables at your own backyard and save money!
Who doesn't admire the deliciousness of a juicy, ripe tomato, fresh from the garden, eaten like an apple with its taste of sweetness and the juices running down one's chin - an example of summer bliss? What about fresh cabbages that come forth in the early spring or the fresh taste of new peas and new potatoes?
Aren't you tired of vegetables coated with wax and chemicals to preserve their freshness and give only a vague semblance of taste?
With Backyard Farming for Beginners: The Ultimate Guide to Building a Mini Backyard Farm at Home, we teach you how to:
- Select a garden site in your backyard
- Prepare the soil and test for pH balance
- Prepare the seeds for planting in containers
- Transplant the seeds to your garden
- Maintain the garden and kill the pests and weeds
- Feed and water the garden
- Make your own compost
- Fertilize the garden properly
- Gather your harvest
- Preserve your foods
- Select the proper animals for your backyard farm
- Harvest the animals
- Preserve the meats or fish
If you wish to have a sustainable, organic, self-sufficient lifestyle, we will help you achieve your dream! You can turn your backyard into a sustaining mini or micro farm instead of another well-manicured oasis of grass for the neighboring dogs.

People have been living off the land for millions of years, and in recent times, self-sustainability has become a hot topic. Rising costs in supermarkets and the lack of true organic produce have led to more and more people turning to their own gardens to provide some of their food. The only way to eat truly organic and healthy produce is to grow your own, and over the years, I've made the mistakes and learned from them so that I can pass my knowledge on to you. Make no mistake; gardening is not easy, but it is one of the most rewarding things you can do for a healthier life.

Story
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.

Story
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?
