Читать книгу Raising Goats For Dummies - Cheryl K. Smith - Страница 15

Goats are not only a great way to become more self-sufficient — they can give you milk to drink and food to eat, and even help you carry your belongings when backpacking — but they teach you in a very direct way where your food comes from and give you an opportunity to affect its quality. If prices go up (and don’t they always?) you are less affected if you’re supplying some of your own food.

And imagine not ever having to cut down blackberries or kudzu again. You can get your friendly goat to do it for you, while growing fiber for hats and sweaters and providing you with milk, meat, and even more goats.

In this section I talk about the many ways goats can contribute and move you toward self-sufficiency.
