This book gives readers the tools and information they need to grow their own food in a sustainable and Earth-friendly fashion, but it also tells some great, hilarious stories and includes some truly beautiful and evocative writing. This is not a dry, "how-to" book; it's a really great read even if you haven't a clue about (or any interest in) farming. 578487 1994 The Contrary Farmer (Real Goods Independent Living Book) total:69|5:27|4:28|3:12|2:0|1:2| 69 285 143 14 3 0 false false Sat Aug 29 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Aug 26 16:52:40 -0700 2009 Sat Aug 29 08:44:21 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Wed Apr 02 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Wed Mar 26 14:27:51 -0700 2008 Sun Apr 13 21:24:23 -0700 2008 more...]]> 5 0 false false Fri Jul 17 21:34:49 -0700 2009 Fri Jul 17 21:38:17 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Mon Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Tue Aug 25 06:45:35 -0700 2009 Tue Aug 25 06:46:42 -0700 2009 1 0 0 false false Mon Nov 23 13:17:17 -0800 2009 Mon Nov 23 13:17:44 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Sun Apr 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Sat Jul 07 17:08:20 -0700 2007 Sat Jul 07 17:12:24 -0700 2007 more...]]> 0 0 false false Tue Sep 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Sep 16 16:43:19 -0700 2009 Wed Sep 16 16:43:42 -0700 2009 1 0 false false Mon Mar 23 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Jan 21 18:18:04 -0800 2009 Sat May 23 17:35:23 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Tue Apr 15 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Wed Apr 16 08:32:48 -0700 2008 Wed Apr 16 08:36:07 -0700 2008 more...]]> 5 0 false false Thu Nov 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Mon Jan 21 18:12:53 -0800 2008 Mon Jan 21 18:14:44 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Sun Sep 20 17:36:43 -0700 2009 Wed Oct 28 17:09:20 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Sun Nov 02 18:13:58 -0800 2008 Sun Nov 02 18:15:14 -0800 2008 5 0 false false Mon Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2001 Mon Jul 02 22:31:27 -0700 2007 Mon Jul 02 22:32:41 -0700 2007 5 0 false false Sat Nov 24 11:14:52 -0800 2007 Sat Nov 24 11:15:46 -0800 2007 5 0 false false Wed Nov 25 08:32:17 -0800 2009 Wed Nov 25 08:32:17 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Sat Nov 21 17:16:34 -0800 2009 Sat Nov 21 17:16:34 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Mon Nov 09 19:36:18 -0800 2009 Mon Nov 09 19:36:18 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Mon Nov 02 07:49:21 -0800 2009 Mon Nov 02 07:49:21 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Sat Oct 31 13:12:20 -0700 2009 Sat Oct 31 13:12:20 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed Oct 21 17:09:16 -0700 2009 Wed Oct 21 17:09:16 -0700 2009 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=591741
