| Made From Scratch By Jenna Woginrich-Storey PublishingTue, 02 Dec 2008 10:35:13 -0800 by StoreyPublishingJenna Woginrich started her independent life in a small city apartment, right after college. Consumerism didnt feel right to her so with characteristic self-determination, she decided to learn homesteading skills. She didnt own land, she worked a desk job, she didnt have much practical experience other than the occasional weekend spent making soap, but she did have a strong desire to be more self-sufficient and less dependent on stuff. Made from Scratch: Discovering the Pleasures of a Handmade Life is the chronicle of her joyful, dramatic, and sometimes sorrowful journey toward self-reliance.What Jenna didnt realize at the time was that her decision wasnt an isolated thought. Todays young people are taking back the land, to grow crops, raise animals for food and farm work, and sustain themselves with their produce, eggs, and dairy products. More and more generations are leaving corporate America to go back to the old ways of farming; but theyre doing it with the help of todays technology and science, as Jenna does.Jenna discovered the term back-breaking isnt really an exaggeration when attempting to clear a plot for a vegetable garden; she learned the hard way that if a hive of bees doesnt have a queen (because she didnt know it was packed separately) they die out. And she learned that once an animal is in your care, it is up to you to protect it and keep it from harmand whatever happens, it is up to you to deal with the consequences.She also discovered the joys of harvesting freshly laid eggs from her own hens, taking in the heady perfume of honey fresh from the comb, playing the sweet music of a mountain dulcimer to her dogs, Annie and Jazz, as well as feeling the pride of being able to teach others how to live this simple, satisfying lifestyle. Made from Scratch is a memoir that instructs with the practical voice of one who states, I made this mistake, so you dont have to. Jenna owns her mistakes but she also shares the exultation of her accomplishments with readers as well as her optimism that we can all learn to live closer to the earth and with fewer footprints on the land.The smallest steps toward self-sufficiency -- a windowbox vegetable garden, a batch of homemade strawberry jam, or a backyard flock of chickens -- all satisfy the craving to homestead. Made from Scratch isnt about having a farmhouse on acres of land or a barn full of livestock. Its about being more open to learning the simple skills most of us have forgotten, and finding joy in the process.ABOUT THE AUTHORJenna Woginrich is a 26-year-old Web designer who works in an office by day and homesteads in her spare time. In addition to her own blog, http://coldantlerfar m.blogspot.com, she is a regular contributor to The Huffington Posts Green Page and Mother Earth News blog pages. Jenna has taught herself to bake, spin, sew, raise chickens, grow vegetables, and play the fiddle and mountain dulcimer. She shares her home with Jazz and Annie, her exuberant Huskies.This is an outstanding book for anyone yearning for the satisfactions that come with a simpler, more self-reliant and sustainable life. I highly recommend it, for both country and city homesteaders.--Chery l Long, Editor in ChiefMother Earth NewsMade From Scratch: Discovering the Pleasures of a Handmade LifeJenna WoginrichStorey Publishing, November 2008One-color; illustrations throughout192 pages; 5½"x 8½"$20.95 Hardcover with jacketISBN 978-1-60342-086-0Ava ilable Wherever Books Are Soldwww.storey.comww w.coldantler-farm.bl ogspot.com Related: storey publishing book how-to made from scratch jenna woginrich homesteading self-reliance farming raising livestock | |
