If we workers and small businesses are not too big to fail, then neither should be the greedy rich. Let the fail (as we should have done last year) and let the "free market" these guys love so much sort things out. Let the cards fall where they may regardless of the consequences. I am pretty sure that most of us would not notice things being any worse AND we would not have had to spend our actually-earned money on taxes to bail out rich failures!

Two great reviews in the newest issue of The Bloomsbury Review from Chelsea: Gaia's Garden ("Do yourself a favor: Pick up a copy of this book and savor it ... You will look at the gardens around you with a completely new perspective."), and Small-Scale Grain Raising ("You will see the world as a gentler, more hopeful p...lace. Perhaps you will be inspired to take up a hoe ... or perhaps you will be content merely to have walked alongside Logsdon for a while. Either way, you will be glad you read this book"). Keep up the good work!Read More

My 22-year-old daughter won't ride in cars - gets everywhere she goes by bike, bus, or train. It's a commitment to public transportation and being in touch with the earth. Human power. So, I ordered this book last week - as soon as I saw it - still waiting to receive it! Can't wait to read it, and it may be a Christmas present for my daughter! (She doesn't use computers either, so no ruining the surprise by mentioning that news here!)

Restoring the American railroad system is an excellent place to start recovering our sense of national purpose and faith in collective enterprise.

Chelsea Green Publishing Good morning! I come to work with a farming dillema. If anyone has advice, it would be appreciated. I'm trying to figure out the best way to let my laying hens forage and roam in the snowy winter, in a warm enclosed area next to their movable henhouse. Hoophouse? Coldframe-ish sunroom? Anyone have ideas?

If you held aside any grass clippings or hay be sure the floor of tarp tent (which is a great idea) is somewhat covered (insulation). A hen does not have great blood circulation in the feet, I've been told.
