Hey folks, guess what.
Granny Miller has a book.
"Granny Miller: A Mind to Homestead"
I was so thrilled to see this.
If you aren't familiar with her blog,
Katherine Grossman aka Granny Miller
shares old-time agrarian knowledge based on experience.
I was fortunate enough to read it via e-version shortly after
its release, and the hardcopy version is also available now.
This is the first in an upcoming series on the topic of homesteading.
Before we go any further, I just want to make clear:
I have never met Granny Miller.
I actually asked her permission to write this post recommending this book.
I've read it and would not be suggesting you read it
if I didn't truly believe it was worthy.
I am not being paid to write this.
There ~ now that that is clear.
I did write a review which you can read here.
The path to homesteading, self-sufficiency, and well being
is different for each of us.
We each have different views, needs, and desires leading us in multiple directions that would probably resemble a spider web if drawn on paper.
Take a look at the contents.
If any of those topics interest you, you won't be disappointed.
From cooking on a wood stove to sewing your own underwear,
the information is complete and well grounded.
If there is a topic you are after but don't see,
you might find it on her blog or in an upcoming volume.
One thing I think is pretty special about blogville
is that we all do things just a little differently and are able to share those ways
while appreciating that others still do it differently.
And in the event that we need help and/or advise,
readers and fellow bloggers are an extremely valuable resource.
Being able to create a community through the internet is a gift indeed.
Take a look and keep well my friends.
PS (update) ~ if the link to her blog doesn't work, she might have taken it down. I know she was having a few health concerns. She takes it down if she can't manage it. Let's send up a prayer for speedy recovery and look forward to her return.
