Recommended Reading (Non Fiction)

Feeding Horses in Australia, RIRDC, John Kohnke, Frank Kelleber & Penny Trevor-Jones. Invaluable information for feeding horses, I'd be lost without this book.
Fruit and Vegetables as Medicine, Sandi Rogers & Anne Wassnig. Great chemical/nutritional breakdown of veg/fruit and how the body uses particular enzymes, vitamins, etc.
Managing Horses on Small Properties, Jane Myers.
Natural Horse Care, Pat Coleby.
Natural Pet Care, Pat Coleby.
No Dig Gardening, Allen Gilbert.
Organic Vegetable Gardening, Annette Mcfarlane.
Recycle Your Garden, Tim Marshall. All about composting incl. wormfarms.
Storey's Basic Country Skills, John & Martha Storey. Great all round information for first timers(stock, garden, etc)
The Cook's Companion, Stephanie Alexander. If I could only own 1 cook book this would be it.
The Family Cow, Dirk Van Loon. Quite an old book worth the read.
The Self Sufficient Life and How to Live it, John Seymour. Gardening, Stock, Craft, Skills etc.
