They have a great blog that I enjoy reading and follow on Facebook. Anna's book, The Weekend Homesteader, is a very good book that I would strongly recommend giving to somebody interested in getting into homesteading/self sufficiency. Might be a little basic for the "experts," but it might be enough to get somebody infected with the homesteading bug!

Thank you for that link, I had lost it. Many of my projects were hatched from them. The temp hoops and fruit trees on wires. I use metal conduit with rigid greenhouse panels for the ends of my hoops, sized for the raised beds. 3' wide and either 4' or 8' long sections for my 12' beds. They are fastened to a 2"x3" cedar frame, Modular and light enough that I can move myself. I use T posts and the smallest rebar instead of wires for my trellis's for fruit trees, grapes and berries. The fence clips work on the small rebar and I don't have the "wire" getting loose....James
