Super book with lots of research and stats that go back into the 70s
and through the mid 90s. Covers part-time sustainable farmers,
microfarmers and urban farmers as well. EXCELLENT chapter on
potentially beneficial changes that government could institute for a
sustainable future. A true "must read" if you are interested in
sustainable living in the country.
Countryside and Small Stock Journal magazine, editor Jd Belanger,
subscription $18 per year, 6x per year, 1-800-551-5691. Much of New
Pioneers is based off a survey of readers done by Jacob. This mag.
started before Mother Earth News and has been in continuous
publication. By those actually practicing sustainable living, it is
considered the best of the back-to-the-land magazines. Not fancy,
reader written, packed with strong "do it" information every issue.
