    Permaculture Homesteading Chat with author Angela Farraro-Fanning

    Welcome back to The Coop with Meyer Hatchery!
    On this episode our host Linda has special guest Angela Ferraro-Fanning, joining us to discuss her writing and her permaculture homestead in New Jersey. Angela is the author of "A Little Homesteader: A Winter Treasury of Recipes, Crafts and Wisdom."
    Angela shares her journey into sustainable farming and permaculture, as well as her passion for living in harmony with nature. She discusses her self-taught approach to farming and the evolution of her homestead into a permaculture farm, where every element contributes to the greater ecosystem.
    As the conversation unfolds, Angela delves into the inspiration behind her "Little Homesteader" book series, aimed at promoting seasonal living and connecting families with the food they eat. She highlights the importance of children understanding where their food comes from and engaging in hands-on experiences, regardless of their living situation.
    Angela also discusses her other books, "The Sustainable Homestead" and "The Harvest Table Cookbook," sharing insights into sustainable farming practices and plant-based recipes inspired by homegrown produce.
    This episode is a great one to contribute to your ongoing journey of learning and hear about Angela's passion for sharing knowledge about permaculture and sustainable living.

Great content and easy to understand as a new chicken keeper

I’ve really enjoyed The Coop. I’ve been listening to it over the past few months as I get ready to receive my first ever chicks from Meyer later this month. The episodes are the perfect length and full of easy to understand information. Thanks Meyer for helping me feel better prepared to embark on my chicken keeping journey!
