HTML:<b>In <i>The Tiny But Mighty Farm</i>, author Jill Ragan of YouTube's Whispering Willow Farm teaches you how to turn a typical suburban backyard into a productive mini farm.</b><br /> Backyard mini farming is about regular people who live in regular houses turning all or part of their property into a productive, high-yielding mini farm. Unlike gardening, mini farming takes a very deliberate approach, with the main goal being to <b>grow as much food as you can with as little land and as few resources as possible</b>. Everything is done with planning and purpose, rather than as a hobby. Whether your property is one-tenth of an acre, one full acre, or somewhere in between, there are so many opportunities to grow vegetables, fruits, and herbs in creative and high-yielding ways.<br /> If concerns about food security and the rising cost of food have you feeling uneasy, or if you just want to <b>play a bigger role in feeding your family and your community</b>, starting a backyard mini farm is the answer. With Jill as your friendly and encouraging guide, you'll learn how to grow food for your family and, if you want, <b>sell part of your harvest for a profit</b>. From discovering what kind of mini farmer you want to be to selecting <b>the best high-yielding varieties</b> and <b>planning out and preparing your growing spaces</b>, it's all covered in these pages.<br /> <br /> With Jill's help you'll learn:<br /> <li>The best tools for running a successful mini farm (hint: a tractor isn't on the list!)</li> <li>Advice on whether to grow in the ground, in raised beds, or indoors</li> <li>How soil health impacts the longevity of your backyard farm</li> <li>Whether heirlooms or hybrids bring bigger yields</li> <li>Ways to use structures like high tunnels and greenhouses to improve production</li> <li>The many satisfactions of growing food for others and how much money you can expect to earn</li><br /> In the process of cultivating food, you'll also be cultivating yourself, your family, and your community in the most beautiful and inspiring ways. With help from <i>The Tiny But Mighty Farm</i>, <b>food self-sufficiency and seasonal, organic eating</b> is an achievable goal. Big yields from a typical backyard is what a <b>well-designed, functional mini farm</b> is all about. Media Type: eBook.
