A small-scale guide to growing and preserving food

Harper Moss’s guide brings several parts of small-scale food production together: planning a productive garden for limited space, building soil through composting, and growing a range of crops organically. It also extends beyond cultivation to chickens, humane processing, and preserving food through canning, dehydration, and fermentation. Permaculture principles and step-by-step instruction frame these practical topics, while selling produce and homemade goods adds a small-business dimension. The scope makes the book a broad introduction to backyard self-sufficiency, from balcony gardening to working with a quarter-acre plot.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Beginning gardeners seeking guidance on making productive use of limited space
  • Homesteaders interested in combining crops, small livestock, and food preservation
  • Readers exploring practical approaches to selling homegrown produce or goods
