With increasing concern for the environment, many people are interested in getting back to the basics: in "living off the land". Ideal for full-time homesteaders, ecology-conscious weekend farmers, or any homeowner with a little spare land, this book is a valuable source of ideas on how to build up a rural property without ruining its scenic beauty and natural purity. No elaborate workshop is needed to delve into this illustrated guide. Using a few basic hand and power tools, master woodworker Peter Badger's step-by-step plans, instructions, and how-to drawings are all the new farmer needs to build barns and animal shelters, gates and fences, livestock hurdles, and more. Encouraging the use of recycled woods and metals, Badger suggests a variety of inexpensive alternatives to store-bought hardware. He also shows readers how to make their own farming tools, carts, wagons, and containers.
