Grasp The Nettle: Making Biodynamic Farming and Gardening Work

Peter Proctor, rev. ed. 2004, 192 pp. We have been looking for years for an easily understood but practical book on biodynamic gardening. Rudolf Steiner's lectures are fascinating but a bit theoretical. Subsequent books have been hard to read or pretty esoteric in describing the preparations. We finally had to go to New Zealand to find this book. Peter Proctor has over 60 years experience as a biodynamic farmer, but goes way beyond that. He draws from the experience of biodynamic farmers all over the world.

The Urban Homestead: Your Guide to Self-Sufficient LIving

This is the best urban homesteading book we can find. What we like is their enthusiasm and humor, and that they have covered most topics fairly well. It is easy to find fault with such an ambitious book that covers so many topics and projects. There are many spelling and grammer errors. They occasionally make real mistakes or significant omissions. This book is an idea book, not a handbook. Most topics will need further research on the internet or with more specific books, an approach we recommend.

Blendtec Flour Mill

We offer the world's most advanced electric flour mill, and it's made in Utah! Mills up to 1 pound of grain a minute. Micronizing chamber 'bursts' grain into fine flour. Stoneless milling reduces heat that destroys nutrients. Milling chamber is self-cleaning and service free. 5 different texture settings including very fine.

Important Note:

Every machine has its weak spot. While this grain mill has overwhelmingly good reviews, the one down-side are the clips that hold the top on. Be very careful of these clips - they are not that hard to break. Any other grinder is going to have its weak spot, on the Blendtec just be careful of the clips.

(Sorry, we cannot ship these to foreign addresses. Shipping to continental U.S. will be about $16, Alaska $26, and Hawaii $30)

Roy's Calais, Flint Corn

One of the most important rediscovered heirlooms of recent years, this New England corn is so cold-hardy that it survived the "year without a summer" in 1816. Developed and preserved by the Abenaki Tribe of northern Vermont. It is not only "incredibly early and able to grow well under cold conditions" but has also been included in the Slow Food Ark of Taste, as an irreplacable American flavor. Most of the 7"-9" ears are golden yellow but a few are deep red, making some of the prettiest polenta and cornbread around. 100 seeds. O $3.50
