Something to Keep at Hand in Case the Worst Occurs
Worrying about where one is going to get their next meal is never something one wants to have to deal with. "Food Security for the Faint of Heart: Keeping Your Larder Full in Lean Times" is a book about preparation when crisis hits. In this modern world, everyone takes the existence of the supermarket for granted and has enough food for about a week, two at most. Covering the skills one needs to stay fed when disaster hits such as preservation, foraging, rationing, and more, "Food Security for the Faint of Heart" is something to keep at hand in case the worst occurs. From Amazon Reviews
If any book was ever published at the right moment, it's [Food Security for the Faint of Heart]. Rising food prices - and in more and more parts of the world rising food scarcity - trigger our most primal fears. Robin Wheeler's book will calm you down and make your eating life simultaneously cheaper, healthier, and more elegant.
As a 'newbie' homesteader, Robin's weekend workshops have been invaluable. I've learned so many practical skills - from how to build a fire to how to make biodynamic compost. I can't recommend Robin and her Sustainable Living Arts School enough.
