Ask not what your chickens can do for you; ask what you can do for your chickens. Gone are the days when chickens were merely egg-layers. Now more than ever they are rightly being seen as cherished pets, uncommon friends, and even spiritual companions! This humorous and insightful book is a hybrid between a memoir and ‘how to’ manual, a whimsical tour of discovery that reveals the magic of backyard chickens. Who would expect chickens to have it all: family squabbles, abiding loyalty, the joys of new life, the heartbreak of loss? This book will challenge the old ideas of chickens as egg producers and introduce us to the vibrant social and spiritual life of chickens. Along the way, you’ll learn how to tend your own flock right in your backyard. You might even find yourself reflecting on your own relationships – with animals, with other people, and with yourself. If you want to provide the best environment for your chickens, if you are game to grow as a person, and if you long to see more beauty in the world, this book is for you. But be warned, it may make you fall in love with chickens and become an unrepentant chicken enthusiast. References and extra information at UncommonFriends.net Do note, the book focuses on the chicken experiences in Australia. While some solutions may vary depending on the climate, the principles are clear and applicable to all environments and chicken breeds.Ver libro

Whether you're an urban farmer seeking sustainable ways to cultivate food or have a keen interest in agriculture technology, this book offers insightful and practical information to help you understand and master the techniques of organic vertical farming.

The search for a sustainable, efficient, and city-friendly farming method has led us to the promising realm of vertical farming. Challenges and Mastery However, while vertical farming brings exciting possibilities, it also comes with its own set of challenges and complexities. The mastery of vertical farming requires understanding not just traditional horticulture, but also systems design, climate control, lighting technologies, nutrient management, and more. Moreover, the organic approach demands a careful balance of these elements to avoid the use of synthetic pesticides and fertilizers. That’s where this book comes in. Inspiration and Call to Action In the spirit of promoting sustainable and local food systems, we encourage you to step into this world, armed with curiosity and fortified with knowledge. The ensuing pages hope to inspire and empower you to pioneer new frontiers in sustainable urban living.Ver libro
