Turn Your Backyard into a Self Sufficient Food Production System

Not long ago humans fed themselves, provided for their on needs and were largely self sufficient. They knew how to feed themselves, how to take care of animals, what to plant and what to do when something went wrong. Our new DVD, “Food Production Systems for a Backyard or Small Farm” is your guide to recapturing that lost knowledge.

This DVD is special because it was created by a family that has actually done it, the things we will teach you to do and more importantly not to do we have already done. We will reveal to you our successes and our failures, some of them very costly to the tune of thousands of dollars so you never have to make them yourself.

In this DVD you will learn about every component of our self sufficient food production model including…

* Water Harvesting and Passive Irrigation
* How to Turn Any Soil into Fertile Black Gold
* Which Livestock to Use and for What Purpose
* Two “Super Trees” that Improve Soil, Grow Fast and Grow Almost Anywhere
* The Role of Dogs on a Homestead
* How to Convert Your Farm or Urban Back Yard into a Food Producing Machine

This Is a DVD You Will Watch Over and Over

Only $24.95 at www.backyardfoodproduction.com

If you asked me what is the biggest mistake we made in the creation of “Food Production Systems for a Backyard or Small Farm”, I would say we put too much on one DVD. The information on this one 110 minute DVD is a compilation of knowledge gained over years of practical application and research that would make a PhD’s head spin.

In fact we include a free bonus DVD of over 60 supporting documents just to help you get the most out of “Food Production Systems for a Backyard or Small Farm”. To give you an idea of how extensive this DVD really is here is the entire DVD Menu…
