"But if it's true that the only person over whom I have control of actions is myself, then it does matter what I do. It may not matter a jot to the world at large, but it matters to me." - John Seymour

I've written an article about how and why goats can be a great part of a backyard permaculture system. It's called Dairy goats – The key to sustainable abundance in the suburbs. In this article I've addressed many of the questions people new to backyard goats might be wondering about - requirements for space, shelter, food, and the time and responsibility involved, as well as the many benefits of keeping dairy goats.

I forgot to ask, for a physical copy (I just can't get into ebooks) is there a preferred purchase point as far as getting more dollars into your hands?

All the physical copies are going through the same distributor, so it all works out to be the same on my side, wherever you order it from.

eric fisher wrote:Hi, definitely on my reading list this one. I have got a slight obsession with goats, I think their interaction with humans can be very mutually beneficial. I am concerned if I just get one it will be lonely and I don't think it will be fair. I live in an urban area and have a garden and an orchard. Don't think the planning laws will stretch to the orchard unfortunately (except for visits...mmm) and my garden is maybe too small. I suppose it could be a pet, but that seems wrong to me also. Still thinking about this one. Somehow I want this to happen in a way that the goat eats my food waste and I can use his/her dropping to grow things.
