During the last couple of years, I would pick up issues of farming, chicken, gardening or otherwise "rural living" types of magazines in order to get some ideas about gardening or raising chickens or living a greener life. One of these magazines initially struck me as odd in their articles and their advertising. It seemed like a freaky source of information about living off the grid - solar power, composting toilets and the like. I now think of this magazine, Countryside and Small Stock Journal, as an interesting facet of living the rural life. Recently I've gotten some good information about raising chickens and growing potatoes in straw.
After looking for some of these articles online, I found a site that seems to have the past eighteen years of
this magazine online, free. It's something I'd like to spend a little time going through during the winter. Maybe I can learn a little something.
