About this listen
Futuresteading is a practical and inspirational guide to living in a way that values tomorrow: a slower, simpler, steadier existence that is healthier for you, your home and the environment.
Whether you live in a city apartment, in the suburbs or on 20 acres, the principles of futuresteading offer easy-to-understand information and hands-on ideas. Learn to grow delicious food and medicinal plants, share rituals with loved ones through the seasons, feast on healthy home-cooked food for the family, nourish body and soul with outdoor expeditions and moments of rest and create wonders with your hands.
This welcoming audiobook begins by showing how futuresteading works in an accessible and practical explainer, before venturing through six seasonal chapters - 'Awakening', 'Alive', 'High Heat', 'Harvest', 'The Turning' and 'Deep Chill' - filled with inspiration for the garden, including making fences and wicking beds, along with 30 (and more) rewarding recipes for slow, nourishing and easy meals.
Grow, store, eat, preserve and share food that deepens the connections you have with your household, your soil and those around you.

When the pandemic hit in 2020, flour and vegetable seeds flew off the shelves. But homesteader and entrepreneur Jill Winger believes these longings for sourdough bread and fresh veggies are more than a trend. As our society races toward progress, we’ve left something important behind. We are more connected than ever before, yet we’re still feeling unfulfilled. In Old-Fashioned on Purpose, Winger shows how simplifying our lives and adopting retro skills such as gardening and handiwork can be the key to creating the happy and healthy life we’re yearning for.

In April 2009, First Lady Michelle Obama planted a kitchen garden on the White House's South Lawn. It is a garden with roots in the American past, stretching back to George Washington, John Adams and Thomas Jefferson, but it is also a garden very much designed for America's future. As fresh vegetables, fruit, and herbs sprouted from the ground, this White House Kitchen Garden inspired a new conversation all across the country about the food we feed our families and the impact it has on the health and well-being of our children.
