About the Book

Developed out of Zoe Wilcox and Melanie Rubin's workshops at Mother NatureGardens and Sacred Heart Backyard Farm, "The Home Farming Revolution forDrylands" is a step-by step guide to help you convert any plot of landinto a micro-farm. Although the book focuses on techniques for the desertSouthwest of the United States, the main concepts and principles areapplicable anywhere.The benefits of creating home farms in our towns and cities are asplentiful as the bounty they produce. We need healthy food in order to behealthy. The United States faces a growing number of health concerns thatmay be catalyzed or exaggerated by poor nutrition in this, the "wealthiestnation in the world." Wilcox and Rubin believe a person shouldn't have tobe wealthy to eat healthy! Home farming provides healthy, organic food atpeak freshness to all people despite economic status or location.
