The editor of Back to Basics and Homesteading, Abigail Gehring is a champion of both urbanites and country folk who are turning toward simpler, greener, more peaceful ways of living. This information-packed, heavily illustrated guide employs the helpful details and useful advice of those books with projects and tips geared toward families, providing the information they need to make the shift toward self-sufficient living. Here are instructions on how to plant a family garden and harvest the produce; can fruits and vegetables; bake bread and cookies; harness wind and solar energy to cook food and warm the home; boil sap to make maple syrup; and build treehouses, furniture, and more. Here too are natural crafts readers can do with their kids, including scrapbooking, making potato prints, dipping candles, and crafting seasonal decorations.
