Book Description/Synopsis:

Little House in the Suburbs teaches readers how to incorporate homestead ideals into their lives while staying within the comfort of the suburbs. Readers learn the fundamentals of gardening including what, when and how to plant - whether it's container gardening, raised-bed gardening, traditional gardening or anything in between. The authors also instruct readers on how to keep bees, chickens and even goats in their backyards while still keeping the peace with their neighbours. By eliciting advice about babysitting co-ops, meal co-ops and barter systems, Little House in the Suburbs redefines community in true homesteading fashion.
