Backyard homesteaders and small farmers will find everything<br />

they need to design a profitable farming enterprise on fewer<br />

than 5 acres. Farmer and author Josh Volk presents plans for<br />

15 real farms that harness the area’s water supply, orientation,<br />

and geography to maximize productivity while minimizing<br />

struggles. Profiles of well-known market farmers such as Eliot<br />

Coleman and Jean-Martin Fortier show that farming on a small<br />

scale in any region, in both urban and rural settings, can provide<br />

enough income to turn the endeavor from hobby into career.<br />
