Download or read book Will Bonsall s Essential Guide to Radical Self Reliant Gardening written by Will Bonsall and published by Chelsea Green Publishing. This book was released on 2015 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Society does not generally expect its farmers to be visionaries." Perhaps not, but longtime Maine farmer and homesteader Will Bonsall does possess a unique clarity of vision that extends all the way from the finer points of soil fertility and seed saving to exploring how we can transform civilization and make our world a better, more resilient place. In Will Bonsall's Essential Guide to Radical, Self-Reliant Gardening, Bonsall maintains that to achieve real wealth we first need to understand the economy of the land, to realize that things that might make sense economically don't always make sense ecologically, and vice versa. The marketplace distorts our values, and our modern dependence on petroleum in particular presents a serious barrier to creating a truly sustainable agriculture. For him the solution is, first and foremost, greater self-reliance, especially in the areas of food and energy. By avoiding any off-farm inputs (fertilizers, minerals, and animal manures), Bonsall has learned how to practice a purely veganic, or plant-based, agriculture--not from a strictly moralistic or philosophical perspective, but because it makes good business sense: spend less instead of making more. What this means in practical terms is that Bonsall draws upon the fertility of on-farm plant materials: compost, green manures, perennial grasses, and forest products like leaves and ramial wood chips. And he grows and harvests a diversity of crops from both cultivated and perennial plants: vegetables, grains, pulses, oilseeds, fruits and nuts--even uncommon but useful permaculture plants like groundnut (Apios). In a friendly, almost conversational way, Bonsall imparts a wealth of knowledge drawn from his more than forty years of farming experience. "My goal," he writes, "is not to feed the world, but to feed myself and let others feed themselves. If we all did that, it might be a good beginning."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Getting Your FREE Bonus Download this book, read it to the end and see "BONUS: Your FREE Gift" chapter after the conclusion. Off-Grid Living Prepper's Guide on Survival Gardening: Grow Your Own Food Most people don't have survival garden at the top of the priority list when they begin to treat the soil. In any case, over the long term and as the world news gets more critical and the future more unverifiable, they understand that garden can't be only a late spring diversion, however a spring, summer and fall survival garden will be required if they are to have enough products from the soil for the year. During the Depression time, these were the people that didn't feel the financial crunch in light of the fact that they could at any rate to nourish themselves. The expression of survival garden makes the reasonable qualification between growing a couple of tomato plants in the late spring and having the goal of sufficiently grown garden by harvesting a large portion of the year to eat crisp and save the overflow. Much the same as wellbeing or life coverage, but less expensive, insurance is a sound basic against rising costs of food, business food defilement and the incorporation of faulty, hereditarily adjusted living being in more of our economically arranged foods.
