You can escape the city... I'm Travis Corcoran. For 20 years I lived in the big city, and worked at tech companies. My heat and water came from city utilities. My food came from the supermarket. Eight years ago I moved to a farm in the countryside. I still work for tech companies (remotely), but now I heat my house with firewood from my forest, I grow my own fruits and vegetables, and I make my own bacon from pigs I raise and butcher. Read more ...and find a place in the country This book is for people like you - people who live in the city or the suburbs. Whether you're already convinced that there's a better lifestyle for you in the country, or just want to learn what your options are, this project has the information you need. Moving from the city to the country is easier than you think... and it can be a lot more affordable than you think too. If you have even a modest home in the city or suburbs, you can trade it for a much nicer farm or homestead in the country, and even save money . I know, because I've done it. I traded a two bedroom 1950s on a postage stamp lot, for 5,000 square foot, five bedroom recent-construction house...and it came with 40 acres of forest, 16 acres of pasture, and two ponds. I used to commute in stop-and-go rush-hour traffic and shop at an overpriced supermarket. Now I work from home and I eat lamb, pork, beef, eggs, fruit, and vegetables fresh from my farm - all of it higher quality than what I could buy at a supermarket. Read more All you need is information You can move to the countryside, work a good-paying job, see your cost of living drop, and see your quality of life improve. The only tricky part is learning the skills. When I moved to the country, I didnt even know what questions to ask. I had to learn thousands of things about tractors, gardens, compost, livestock, and more. A lot of it the hard way. Now I've put it all in a book - two books, actually, because there's too much information to fit in one volume. Absolutely everything you need to know about country living and homesteading, to help you move from the suburbs or city out to the country, and thrive once you're there. Whether you want to plant orchards and raise livestock, or just want to have a few chickens for eggs, my books will give you everything you need to know. They'll tell you what equipment and tools you need, and show you the skills to use them.

There are endless books on gardening, farming, and homesteading - I know, I own hundreds of them. All of them have three failures. They dont have sufficient breadth. One will talk about compost but not gardening. Another will talk about gardening, but not tractors. They all have blind spots. Especially about the basic stuff. They forget that thousands of things aren't obvious to everyone. The difference between straw and hay, between sweet corn and field corn, discing versus plowing versus rototilling, pastures versus fields, the different kinds of fencing, how utilities differ from the suburbs to the countryside. A book on gardening doesnt tell you what you really need to know about hoses. A book on firewood might tell you to haul logs with your tractor, but not everything you need to do it safely. Lack of itemized lists and step-by-step instructions. For every topic, there's a conversational discussion, but I follow that up with simple checklists, overviews, alternative choices for different budgets or enthusiasm levels, and step by step instructions. I also included dozens of recipes for every vegetable and fruit I grow, and for every part of every animal I raise farm-to-table recipes apple cobbler red wine from your own grapes beef fajitas Asian fried pork chop cutlets head cheese English black pudding ...and dozens more Read more These books deliver You get all the benefit of my experience - including dozens of misadventures, so you can learn from my mistakes.

Over the last decades millions of people have become interested in gardening, ethically raised meat, becoming more self-sufficient, and having a lifestyle that doesn't feel consumerist and fake.
