Community for
Women; review by Tara Springer , February 1, 1997 Carla Emery started
this
ambitious
reference project in 1969 as a complete guide to family food
production and now,
in
its ninth edition, it has grown into an all-encompassing encyclopedia
spanning
everything from buying land to family farming to raising livestock to
barn
building
to beekeeping to bread baking to making your own yogurt, plus a
generous helping
of
suppliers, catalogers, books and magazines, and organizations.
Hundreds of
unique
down-home recipes fill these pages, along with advice and instructions
on all
manner
of food growing and preparation and a wealth of folk wisdom collected
over the
years
from homesteaders that Carla has met or corresponded with. This book
is an
absolute
gold mine of how-to, where-to information, whether you want to head
for the
hills or
you just want to learn to live more self-sufficiently.   Synopsis
