Hello
Welcome to Rural Revolution's
Self-Sufficiency Series.
The publications in
this series were created to provide specific and immediately
useful information on a wide range of topics related to
personal self-sufficiency.
I've tried to make the
information user-friendly and accessible to those just
beginning their journey toward self-sufficiency, as well as
the more experienced travelers of that wonderful path.
It is my goal to keep the cost of each of these publications
low, and to add more to the series
in a timely fashion.
If you, the reader,
wish to address any questions or comments concerning this
publication or have any requests
or suggestions for further publications, I invite you to send
an email to: ruralrevolution@hotmail.com or visit my blog
at www.rural-revolution.com.
Come join the many
wonderful Rural Revolutionaries who have been so helpful with
their suggestions, comments, and friendship in bringing these
publications to fruition.
