Book Synopsis Farming While Black by : Leah Penniman
Download or read book Farming While Black written by Leah Penniman and published by Chelsea Green Publishing. This book was released on 2018 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Farming While Black is the first comprehensive "how to" guide for aspiring African-heritage growers to reclaim their dignity as agriculturists and for all farmers to understand the distinct, technical contributions of African-heritage people to sustainable agriculture. At Soul Fire Farm, author Leah Penniman co-created the Black and Latino Farmers Immersion (BLFI) program as a container for new farmers to share growing skills in a culturally relevant and supportive environment led by people of color. Farming While Black organizes and expands upon the curriculum of the BLFI to provide readers with a concise guide to all aspects of small-scale farming, from business planning to preserving the harvest. Throughout the chapters Penniman uplifts the wisdom of the African diasporic farmers and activists whose work informs the techniques described--from whole farm planning, soil fertility, seed selection, and agroecology, to using whole foods in culturally appropriate recipes, sharing stories of ancestors, and tools for healing from the trauma associated with slavery and economic exploitation on the land. Woven throughout the book is the story of Soul Fire Farm, a national leader in the food justice movement." --

Download or read book The Urban Farmer written by Curtis Allen Stone and published by New Society Publishers. This book was released on 2015-12-14 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are twenty million acres of lawns in North America. In their current form, these unproductive expanses of grass represent a significant financial and environmental cost. However, viewed through a different lens, they can also be seen as a tremendous source of opportunity. Access to land is a major barrier for many people who want to enter the agricultural sector, and urban and suburban yards have huge potential for would-be farmers wanting to become part of this growing movement. The Urban Farmer is a comprehensive, hands-on, practical manual to help you learn the techniques and business strategies you need to make a good living growing high-yield, high-value crops right in your own backyard (or someone else's). Major benefits include: Low capital investment and overhead costs Reduced need for expensive infrastructure Easy access to markets Growing food in the city means that fresh crops may travel only a few blocks from field to table, making this innovative approach the next logical step in the local food movement. Based on a scalable, easily reproduced business model, The Urban Farmer is your complete guide to minimizing risk and maximizing profit by using intensive production in small leased or borrowed spaces. Curtis Stone is the owner/operator of Green City Acres, a commercial urban farm growing vegetables for farmers markets, restaurants, and retail outlets. During his slower months, Curtis works as a public speaker, teacher, and consultant, sharing his story to inspire a new generation of farmers.

Download or read book The Handbook for Practical Farmers written by Hugh Findlay and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-24 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Handbook for Practical Farmers The leaders in American farm-life to-day realize that the farmer must be not only a good business man, but he must also be acquainted with the science of agriculture. Therefore this book aims to deal with the business side of farming and to assemble the scientific knowledge of agriculture as studied and practiced by a number of experts. In order to make this practical knowledge more accessible to the farmer, technical terms have been eliminated and an easily comprehended terminology has been maintained throughout the book. The author is indebted to many experiment stations for their cooperation in supplying information and illustrations, credit for which is given in the pages of this book. He is particularly pleased to acknowledge his deep obligations to the International Harvester Company, the Du Pont Powder Works, and the Gould Force Pump Company, for their contributions. Grateful acknowledgment is due the Country Gentleman, the Wisconsin Farmer, Doubleday, Page & Co., and the Macmillan Company for extracts taken from their publications. The U. S. Department of Agriculture has given valuable service to the editor in furnishing material and in supplying bulletins from which extracts and illustrations have been taken. The farmer and his family arc the most potent factors in making the United States the greatest producing nation as well as the greatest nation of happy homes. It is therefore hoped that this book will aid in increasing production and happiness among the tillers of the soil.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Manual of Scientific and Practical Agriculture: For the School and the Farm It comes from those who' have been long employed as tillers of the land, as well as from the younger farmers, who desire to improve upon the old system (or rather want of system) of culture, which has worn out so many of our best lands.
