Tumbledown Farm .9 Acres (give or take an acre or two)

I wouldn't even think to ask the question--because the answer is too obviously NO! on the face of it, by any common-sense definition of the term "sustainable"--if I hadn't been surprised lately by Monsanto's radio ads on the local NPR affiliate.

This book summarizes what we have learned from our Library of Traditional Farming and Organic Gardening (see the sidebar on the right) and from many years of experimenting in our own garden. Here we present the best of what we have learned about how to garden organically and how to farm sustainably on a small suburban lot. Your comments and suggestions are welcome and they will help us correct the current work, as well as focus and shape future chapters. Our hope is that the growing number of such books will create a micro-farm revolution.
