Modern Pioneering: More Than 150 Recipes, Projects, and Skills for a Self-Sufficient Life

A cookbook and backyard gardening and homesteading guide for women who want to grow food efficiently, cook seasonal recipes, or even try foraging, camping, and living off the land.

Self-sufficiency is the ultimate girl power

 

Georgia Pellegrini, outdoor adventurer and chef, helps you roll up your sleeves and tap into your pioneer spirit. Grow a small-space garden and preserve a little deliciousness for the cold months; assemble the makings of a self-sufficient pantry; learn to navigate without a compass for your next camping trip; or even forage for plants that give you energy.

Whether you’re a full-time homesteader, a weekend farmer’s market devoté, or anyone looking to do more by hand, this overflowing resource will help you hone new skills in the kitchen, garden, and great outdoors. It includes:

·         More than 100 recipes for garden-to-table dishes, preserves, and cured foods

·         Small-space gardening advice on building a raised bed, choosing what to grow, and saving seeds

·         DIY projects, such as Mason jar lanterns and homemade notecards

·         Superwoman skills like assembling a 48- hour survival toolkit in an Altoids tin

 

Packed with beautiful photographs and illustrations, Modern Pioneering proves that becoming more self-sufficient not only means being empowered, but also having a lot more fun.
