Storey Publishing spring 2013 Catalog

Dear Friends, Storey has always been about self-reliance, helping readers master the skills to grow, craft, fix, and build the things they need. But our Spring 2013 list shows that self-reliance is now about more than just making it yourself — it’s about making it your way, using your skills as a starting place for innovation, inspiration, and creative self-expression. People have been preserving food for centuries, but in Put ‘em Up! Fruit, Sherri Brooks Vinton goes way beyond applesauce, showing you how to make dozens of unique fruit preserves and then offering 80 delectable recipes, sweet and savory, that make use of them. Lots of people make their own clothes, but in Skirt-a-Day Sewing, Nicole Smith shows readers how to make them exactly the way they want, drafting custom-fit patterns to create uniquely fabulous skirts for every day of the week. And in The Good Life Lab, Wendy Jehanara Tremayne shares her story of making do with less by making things herself, discovering that a handmade life can be the ultimate in creative self-expression. These Storey titles, and many others, will help your customers take self-sufficiency to the next level. Creative self-reliance is on the rise, and we hope our authors will inspire you to embrace it.

BASICS

Books for Self-Reliance

Because buying land is even more challenging than buying a home, this book identifies drawbacks, red flags, negotiables, and deal breakers to help readers make sound decisions and avoid future problems. Once prospective buyers know the answers to key questions (Is the water on the property reliable? Are the neighbors and neighborhood suitable? How will local government regulations affect the land?) they can confidently move toward their dream of owning good farmland. This Storey Basics guide is the perfect companion for new farmers, ranchers, homesteaders, and hobby farmers as they start their search for land that will meet their needs.

unusual texture, fresh color, and nutritional value. As more people become familiar with the idea of finding food in the woods, lakeside, or on their favorite hiking trail, they begin to notice the world around them in a new way. Now it’s time to discover the many surprisingly edible plants found in backyards, lawns, and parks.

Foraging doesn’t have to be hard or scary. Backyard Foraging brings foraging home to the neighborhood. There’s the lawn full of sheep sorrel, chickweed, dandelion, and pineapple weed. Vacant lots host edibles like sumac, purslane, or Japanese knotweed. And even urban parks may offer up garlic mustard, milkweed, gingko nuts, daylilies, and elderberries. In addition to offering tips on safety, harvesting etiquette, and other topics, Backyard Foraging includes plant profiles of 65 ornamental plants and weeds, as well as a few mushrooms. With this information in hand, foragers will know what the plant is, the ins and outs of harvesting the edible parts, and the best way to prepare and eat them.

home food preservation has been rediscovered !

It’s no longer an oldfashioned chore, but a practical and economical way to enjoy seasonal foods year-round. From hip urbanites who want to push culinary boundaries to moms who want to control ingredients for their families, and from homesteaders living off the grid to gardeners harvesting their bounty, preserving is popular with people from all walks of life for all kinds of reasons. No matter the motivation, Sherri Brooks Vinton wants food preserving to be fun. Put ’em Up! Fruit has 80 recipes for delicious fruit products that can be used now or preserved for later. What sets this book apart from the other preserving books out there? Sherri doesn’t just put ’em up, she also uses ’em up — with 80 recipes that use preserves to add a little summer sunshine, whatever the time of year. Yes, cherry jam is a bit of heaven on a scone, but use it in a pan reduction sauce and it livens up a duck breast. Chicken legs are the perfect potluck fare, but glaze them with Quick Apricot Jam and they’ll be the hit of

It costs upwards of $300 to start a hive, but much less if the beekeeper builds his or her own equipment. That’s where Tony Pisano’s expertise comes in. Build Your Own Beekeeping Equipment offers 35 building projects for everything from hive components to frames to swarm catchers and even bear fences, all illustrated with step-by-step instructions.

United States, and 94 percent of them are kept on small-scale farms or backyard homesteads. And sheep are now moving into the suburbs as more fiber artists want to produce their own fleece, families want to make their own cheese, and kids want livestock as backyard pets. The Backyard Sheep is the go-to reference for anyone interested in keeping two to a dozen sheep on a small plot of land. Even those with no prior experience will learn how to select the right breed, keep sheep safe and healthy, make them strong dairy and fleece producers, and bring out their personalities as pets. This book is filled with Sue Weaver’s infectious enthusiasm for sheep, and readers will learn that sheep are much smarter than they get credit for. With wit and wisdom, Weaver teaches the skills for milking, shows how to tip a sheep to keep it still, and discusses sheep behavior so nothing comes as a surprise to the newly initiated.

In 2006, Ali Berlow founded Island Grown Initiative, a nonprofit designed to support local farmers on Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts. A primary goal was to help farmers keep their costs down by processing meat on the island instead of transporting animals off island to be slaughtered and then returning the meat to be sold locally. The solution was to build a mobile poultry slaughterhouse that is used by the whole farming community. It has been a success on many levels. Farmers can meet demand; transportation, stress, and costs are reduced; and the community comes together as local poultry production becomes more profitable.

Now, with The Mobile Poultry Slaughterhouse, this solution is available to small-scale farmers, homesteaders, and community leaders across the United States. Berlow uses the island’s experience as a case study but also provides step-by-step instructions for building a unit, explains USDA regulations and permits, and provides a sanitation checklist so farmers are prepared when they use the unit. The book includes tips and guidelines for strengthening local food initiatives in any community.

Ali Berlow is the founder of Island Grown Initiative and the editor of Edible Vineyard. She has been a food writer for the last ten years, wrote the NPR essay series “A Cook’s Notebook, “ and blogs about food for the Huffington Post. She lives in Vineyard Haven, Massachusetts.

Electric Fencing ann larkin hansen for farmers and ranchers , fencing is as much about keeping predators out as it is about keeping livestock in. Significantly less expensive than barbed wire, electric fencing is the preferred way to do both tasks effectively, but there’s never been a book dedicated to the topic. And while it’s not difficult to install and maintain electric fencing, people often get the details wrong and then wonder why the fence isn’t doing its job.

BASICS

Books for Self-Reliance

Ann Larkin Hansen brings decades of experience to the art of using electric fencing. In this Storey Basics guide, she explains in everyday terms how it works, the various systems one can build, how to install and maintain the three kinds of electric fence (permanent, combination permanent nonelectric and electric wire offset, and temporary or portable electric), and what not to do with electric fencing. For livestock raisers, Hansen also covers the basics of rotational grazing. Electric Fencing is the essential guide for any farmer, rancher, homesteader, or backyard beekeeper who needs to keep animals safely confined or protected from predators.

The Backyard Homestead Guide to Raising Farm Animals

The Backyard Homestead

Anyone — even in cities and suburbs — can raise chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, rabbits, goats, sheep, cows, pigs, and honey bees. It’s easier than you think, and it can be done on surprisingly small plots of land. This book covers everything from selecting breeds to feeding and housing animals, keeping them healthy, and producing delicious fresh milk, cheese, honey, eggs, and meat.

Put that backyard to work! Just one-quarter of an acre can yield 1,400 eggs, 50 pounds of wheat, 60 pounds of fruit, 2,000 pounds of vegetables, 280 pounds of pork, and 75 pounds of fruit. Plant, grow, harvest, cook, brew, keep animals, make cheese, preserve fruits and vegetables, gather eggs and honey, make sausage, and much more — the how-to is all here for the enterprising homesteader.

Feltmaking — the transformation of a loose pile of wool fibers into a durable, nonwoven fabric — produces a flannel-like fabric with a tactile appeal like nothing else. By adding a little soap and water to the wool, the feltmaker can press and shape the fibers together into wonderfully soft fiber arts. ▶ Top 10 Craft Title from Library Journal Paper: $24.95 US / $29.95 CAN

Melissa Morgan-Oakes revolutionized sock making with 2-at-aTime Socks, showing knitters how to create two socks at once on a single circular needle. Now, she shows how to knit two socks at a time while working from the toe up — allowing the knitter to try on the socks as she works, avoid running out of yarn before the feet are complete, and avoid using the kitchener stitch to finish off the toes. The technique can be applied to any sock pattern, but Morgan-Oakes provides 15 original sock designs for men, women, children, and babies. ▶ Selection of Crafter’s Choice Book Club ▶ 48,000 copies in print

A crochet border is the perfect finishing touch on the edges of any fiber project. Creating one, however, often requires turning a corner and shaping the edging around a 90-degree angle. This is rarely simple, and most edging patterns don’t include specific instructions for turning the corner. Edie Eckman comes to the rescue with this collection of 150 colorful crochet frames that do supply these instructions. Color photographs let you see the details up close. Easy, marvelous crochet borders are just around the corner!

Horses have a language and a logic all their own, but humans can learn to understand what they are saying. Using a question-and-answer format and drawing on real-life case studies, equine behavior expert Jessica Jahiel explains how a horse thinks and learns, why it acts the way it does, and how you should respond. You’ll find answers to common horse behavior problems such as how to handle a frightened or untrained horse, how to help a horse overcome its fear of the vet, what to do with a horse that kicks or rears, and how to help older horses break bad habits.

Zen Mind, Zen Horse Allan J. Hamilton, MD

Horses have evolved to understand the flow of energy — chi — around them, using it to communicate, express dominance, and sense danger from predators. Being quietly present and receptive to your horse’s chi opens the potential of your intuitive right brain, awakening your sensitivity, calm leadership, and mindfulness. This approach to horse training offers everyone who works with horses — novice or expert — a better understanding of how humans interact with horses and how doing so can lead to spiritual awakening. ▶ 2012 Nautilus Gold Book Award Winner Paper: $24.95 US / $29.95 CAN
