A beautifully illustrated book to inspire any would-be urban homesteader, or anyone who wants to grow their own produce within arm's reach. Engaging descriptions of each project by the owners, detailing challenges and benefits, as well as tips and tricks from the experts. Covers a wide range of garden possibilities, including from the United Kingdom, United States, Australia and EuropeIn a fast-paced world with mega upheaval, including climate crises and a global pandemic, the allure of growing your own food, being self-sufficient, and living green is immense. This yearning for not being wholly reliant on the supermarket, and the growing concerns over pesticides and food miles has led to the resurgence in seeking old-world skills. As showcased in Urban Homesteads, the benefits of a productive garden on your doorstep or within arm’s reach, tending to chickens, harvesting your own honey, and using eco-friendly water-harvesting techniques are clear: fresh herbs, vegetables, and fruit on tap, fresh eggs, delicious honey; plus living at a slower pace, better value for money, and a more soothing and mindful existence.
