Summary

Finally, a book that simplifies the beginning skills of urban homesteading and provides easy lessons for those ready to be more self-sufficient. We are all different and live in different situations. This book will get you started in ways you might not have thought of, no matter where you are.

This isn't just for the Urbanite, it's for anyone who needs a simple, easy step-by-step guide with small but important steps to independence and self-confidence.

Would you like to learn skills to make your home and your life simpler and cleaner but aren't sure where to begin? Are you waking up to all the chemicals present in your life and want to eliminate what you can? Would you feel more secure growing some of your own food and foraging locally for nutrient-rich wild plants?

In generations past, our families knew all of these skills but through modern conveniences and lack of time, most of us have lost these valuable traditions. It’s never too late to start learning. You could be the one to bring these skills and traditions back to your family.

In this book, you will learn many of the simple, inexpensive techniques that could allow you to begin living such a life, with chapters that cover:
