Many thanks to all of you who have ordered books from us. We were able to get the books out yesterday via our wondrous Xtracycle with a boost from the US Postal Service. And also, a note to our contributors–thanks and your books are in the mail as well. For those of you thinking of ordering some we have more available!
I picked up a copy of the book today at Vromans. I’d been meaning to order a copy but hadn’t done it yet. Once I saw it on the shelf, though, I had to go for the instance gratification. I’ve only read a little bit so far but highly recommend it.
That is, I highly recommend it to your other blog readers. Obviously you two probably don’t need to re-read it again so soon.
I too saw your book and at first glance thought that finally the PTF family had written a book about their urban homestead. Flipping through the pages…
Unless I missed it, I can’t believe your book failed to list a reference to the PTF folks whose longtime urban homesteading project is a fine example for all us city dwellers. Not to mention their website is the most influential and in-depth site out there in terms of urban sustainability-homesteading. Living in LA I can’t believe you haven’t heard of them!
Sorry to be in the dark zanygrrlrocks, but what is the PTF family?
Never heard of ‘um…

Sorry, Josh, Thanks for pointing that out. Their extensive urban homesteading website is http://www.PathtoFreedom.com. They also have a online journal http://www.urbanhomestead.org/journal which is huge!
This eco family lives in LA and have been urban homesteading for over 20 years.
