Grow Your Own Groceries: Vegetables

Grow Your Own Groceries: Vegetables was a free kindle book when this post was written.

Imagine walking out to your backyard or sunny patio and picking your own Plump Juicy tomatoes and crisp lettuce for a healthy salad. It just puts you at peace, knowing how it was grown and that it is fresh and healthy. I often plan the menu depending on what’s ready to harvest. Eating this way is so much easier than menu planning and
grocery shopping all the time. There are so many reasons to grow your own foods organically and you don’t need to spend a fortune to do so. You can start as big or small as you like. Do you like BLTs with sweet tomatoes and crisp lettuce? Grow a tomato plant with some lettuce planted at its base. Who doesn’t love Spaghetti? You could even make your own Spaghetti sauce. Do you like fresh crisp Lettuce on your burger? Do you use Green Onions? Grow them both in a small pot on a sunny windowsill. This book covers everything you need to know to grow your own vegetables easily and inexpensively.

In this book you will learn:


  • Some of the top reasons to grow your own foods

  • Where to get seeds and plants for far less than the stores

  • How to easily grow, companion plant, harvest, store and collect seeds from 14 of the most popular vegetables

  • Which of these can be regrown from Grocery store produce and seed

  • How to make 3 basic potting soils yourself that are far better than the name brands

  • How to grow and use your own mulches, even in pots!

  • How to make 6 of your own fertilizers with things you most likely already have

  • which vegetables can be container grown and what size container is needed for best growth

  • How to make your own trellis’s, plantable seed starting pots, cloches etc…from things you have around the house or can purchase inexpensively from the hardware store.
Growing your own Groceries: Vegetables is just a first to come in a series of eBooks on growing your own foods. It couldn’t be easier to grow your own foods, even if you are in an apartment with limited space. All you need is a sunny window sill to get started.

Hoodsbee: The Hoodie That Becomes A Plush Toy

I was really wowed when I first seen this!  My Little Man even more. This is such a neat idea and it is easy to become a backer of this project through Kickstarter!

A soft, plush toy that becomes a hoodie for your child is a great idea. They can take it along with them in car, camping, school, trips, airplane, etc and if they get cold put it on. Then at bed time they have their snuggly stuffed animal that they can use as a pillow to make them feel at home. Awesome! Pledge to  Hoodsbee at Kickstarter!

Ebola: How to prepare for Ebola

Ebola: How to prepare for Ebola was a free kindle book when this post was written.

Ebola has been dominating the world news in recent weeks. The Ebola outbreak in West Africa has infected hundreds of people and has claimed many lives. The concern is that the Ebola virus will transfer around the world very quickly. The reason that this is a real danger is that Ebola Symptoms can take as long as 21 days to show themselves, in this time the virus can be spread around the world.

However, unlike flu the virus, Ebola is not airborne. This gives us a good chance of being able to fight it and stop the Ebola outbreak from spreading.

This book covers the viral symptoms of the Ebola virus - it tells you what to look out for. Like many infectious diseases, Ebola transfers quickly where there is poor public health and lack of sanitation, the book explains why western survival rates are likely to be higher.

The prepper community is fully aware of the need to prepare for potential pandemics such as these and preppers will have already stockpiled goods to help them survival if the Ebola outbreak reaches our shores. The book gives a short insight into how a prepper will prepare for any infectious disease, including Ebola and flu, hitting the United States and tells people new to the concept what steps to take in the first instance.
