Many people want to run their own smallholding but wonder how easy it is and what exactly is involved. Free-range and Flourishing: The Smallholders Year offers valuable guidance to anyone seeking to embrace this aspect of rural life. Unlike farming, a smallholding doesnt require acres of land making it a far more accessible option. Author and smallholder Allison Lee provides hints and advice on growing fruit and vegetables, raising various animals, and encouraging wildlife. Drawing on her own experience she focuses on topics from choosing the right field shelters, fencing and equipment, to caring for donkeys, ponies, sheep, goats, pigs and chickens. Covering a year in the life of a smallholder, this book will encourage readers to be mindful of the seasons and enable them to understand the essential jobs that must be done all year round to keep livestock safe and healthy and the land productive.

Organizado por Ricardo Abramovay e Arilson Favareto, este livro reúne artigos que revelam como os sistemas agrícolas atuais e as formas de produção e consumo de alimentos ameaçam o equilíbrio ambient
