description: With humor and poise Jenna Woginrich describes her adventurous self-education in homesteading. Poignant offbeat observations on learning to farm by trial and error punctuate the story of her quest to find a permanent home for herself and her livestock: chickens geese sheep ducks rabbits a goat and a turkey. Alone and on a shoestring budget Woginrich takes on cranky neighbors and small-town politics without ever losing her trademark humility or comedic style.
