Twelve months to self-sufficiency!

This fully updated second edition of the popular Weekend Homesteader series includes exciting, short projects that you can use to dip your toes into the vast ocean of homesteading without getting overwhelmed. If you need to fit homesteading into a few hours each weekend and would like to have fun while doing it, these projects will be right up your alley, whether you live on a forty-acre farm, a postage-stamp lawn in suburbia, or a high rise.

The January volume includes the following projects:

* Test your garden soil
* Bake bread
* Awaken your media consciousness
* Turn trash into treasures

The second edition has been revised and expanded to match the paperback, with extra photos and feedback from weekend homesteaders just like you, plus permaculture-related avenues for the more advanced homesteader to explore.

More great ideas and knowledge

By Amazon Customer on December 21, 2011

Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase

This month Anna tackles chicken coops and bread dough, among other things, with her customary clear writing and expansive knowledge. If you'd like to become even a little bit more self-sufficient than you currently are, be sure to snag the Weekend Homesteader every month. I really appreciate Anna's generous sharing of her experience as a homesteader.

Great information, could use a kindle index

By Lori Z. on January 21, 2012

Format: Kindle Edition

Great information and a very readable writing style. I think the book would be more usable if there was a working index..so that i could jump to an article without clicking one page at a time until I find it. However, that aside, I plan on spending my next year with this series and hopefully improving my garden.

A handbook for thrift and repurposing

By Amazon Customer on November 17, 2013

Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase

Anna returns like an old friend to walk readers through homestead projects that range from gardening, bread making to dumpster diving. She always puts a positive spin on the simple life that makes you crave it. Delightful as always. Give it a read.

Great series, helps you to organize

By Amazon Customer on February 17, 2013

Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase

I like these weekend homesteader ebooks because they remind me of what needs to be done seasonally. Its a great series and helps to get you organized. I love that you can do things in small stages and incorporate things into your life without having to be a full time homesteader. Actually, lots of great hints in this series for people who are not homesteaders. Great to read both ahead of time and in season. In the January version I like the section on bread baking. I also like how the author tells you what tasks are good for the beginning homesteader and what tasks are a bit beyond a part time homesteader or beginning homesteader.

A Must Have

By Madine09 on February 15, 2013

Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase

I love all the Weekend Homesteader titles. She has great no-nonsense jobs to improve your farm and work toward self-sustainability on your weekend free time. Many of the articles made me look at things in a new way, and I've learned a lot from them!

It's odd to "start" at #10, but this is a great series for newbies and slightly experienced!!!!

By Anna Weed on January 19, 2013

Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase

We always had a garden growing up. (Not a great big acre or more...) and you forget things. This is a great place to jog the memory and learn some new tricks. It even encourages new projects. I recommend this to anyone who would like to feel like they are repared for "hard times" or just want to grow their own salad!! :-)
