About this product

Product Information

First published in 1977, this bookofrom one of Americais most famous and prolific agricultural writersobecame an almost instant classic among homestead gardeners and small farmers. Now fully updated and available once more, Small-Scale Grain Raising offers an entirely new generation of readers the best introduction to a wide range of both common and lesser-known specialty grains and related field crops, from corn, wheat, and rye to buckwheat, millet, rice, spelt, flax, and even beans and sunflowers. More and more Americans are seeking out locally grown foods, yet one of the real stumbling blocks to their efforts has been finding local sources for grains, which are grown mainly on large, distant corporate farms. At the same time, commodity prices for grainsoand the products made from themohave skyrocketed due to rising energy costs and increased demand. In this book, Gene Logsdon proves that anyone who has access to a large garden or small farm can (and should) think outside the agribusiness box and learn to grow healthy whole grains or beansothe base of our culinary food pyramidoalongside their fruits and vegetables. Starting from the simple but revolutionary concept of the garden ipancake patch,i Logsdon opens up our eyes to a whole world of plants that we wrongly assume only the agricultural ibig boysi can grow. He succinctly covers all the basics, from planting and dealing with pests, weeds, and diseases to harvesting, processing, storing, and using whole grains. There are even a few recipes sprinkled throughout, along with more than a little wit and wisdom. Never has there been a better time, or a more receptive audience, for this book. Localvores, serious home gardeners, CSA farmers, and whole-foods advocatesoin fact, all people who value fresh, high-quality foodsowill find a field full of information and ideas in this once and future classic.
