Buy Mini Farming: Self-Sufficiency on 1/4 Acre by Markham, Brett L. online on desertcart.ae at best prices. ✓ Fast and free shipping ✓ free returns ✓ cash on delivery available on eligible purchase. Review: Good little book for starters Review: This book is a thoroughly good read to introduce you to the idea of efficient food production on a small plot, and effectively bypasses the more traditional folklore-based practices of traditional home veg growers. Various named theories of intensive growing are explained and appraised. There is good science here, explained clearly, and with sufficient information and references to explore further. Although the writer's experience is in New England, the book makes it very simple to convert everything to a place with different climate. I read the book through in a couple of days. It was something of a page turner! I am now using it as a reference for development of my own far-from-perfect plot.

The book has a lot of short good informations. But the book only came in a cargo bag. No protector covers or cardboards. Not even in a classic Amazon envelope thats hard. I bought the book first hand. but it came damaged and with little rips on the cover.

Love the book! High quality publication. Fits large on a bookshelf but a great book to learn more about how to maximize a small parcel of land to produce as much as possible! Great for homesteaders and folks entering the farming world.
