Sufficient : A Modern Guide to Sustainable Living

A global shift has begun that is slanted towards slowing down and consuming less, embracing artisan foods, and championing human-scale organic growing methods that are safe, compassionate, and pleasurable. This comprehensive reference is designed to inspire, educate and encourage a process of change towards a simple, gentle, and sustainable way of living. It features a passionate approach to understanding why changes need to be made and how they can be achieved in a fun and life-enhancing way, and highlights in particular ways to grow organic vegetables and fruits or raise animals in almost any setting. Its central aim is to encourage the practice of sustainability in every aspect of life.
