I have seen Back to Eden and started implementing the mulch concept to our garden last year. We are going to try to take it further this year. It's a great film! And with the weather we are having I can use all the help I can get and mulching as mentioned in the film really makes a difference.

I am going to try saving my seeds this year so I will have to check out the Seed to Seed book. I'm so jealous of your land and all you're doing. Hopefully some day we'll have some land to do the same. <br /><br />If I can recommend one thing, it's not a book, but a film and you can watch it for free online. It's Back to Eden. I just started using his gardening methods last year and I LOVE IT!!

If you'd rather NOT have to weed, and be very efficient with your veggie gardening, I recommend Mel Bartholomew's Square Foot Gardening. (His latest book, All New Square Foot Gardening, Second Edition: The Revolutionary Way to Grow More In Less Space, will be released Feb. 2013, description of it at amazon.com.)

But I've been making fermented foods, using WAPrice as one powerful way to understand nutrition, cook from scratch for my family of 5 ( with three 6 and under) and am trying to work on my gardening skills and hope to have a flock of chickens soon. Anyway, you should check out this book: The Resilient Gardener: Food Production and Self-Reliance in Uncertain Times by Carol Deppe. I found it fascinating! I will look forward to more recommendations from you and to reading your blog. All my best, mariMarihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18423629159621739470noreply@blogger.com
