Product Details


Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

This smorgasbord of organic recipes, tips and suggestions has something for everyone, but like a Jack-of-all-trades, it's a master of none. With an emphasis on food, from gardening and buying to preserving and preparing, it also covers household hints on such subjects as conservation (turn down the thermostat), safe cleaning products (baking soda) and the three R's of green living: reduce, reuse and recycle, with recipes for such products as baby food, sauerkraut and exfoliating skin scrub. Some of these slices of organic living are appealing and accessible, like instructions for growing potted herbs, making compost and drying tomatoes. Others, like the information on renewable energy and keeping honey bees, are too sketchy to be of real use. The six pages devoted to raising pigs (with one entire page on selecting your breeds) borders on the absurd for most people. The selections are randomly ordered, with churning butter next to Make Organic Drinks. Profusely illustrated, the book may make an inspiring gift for those wishing to make their lives greener, but it's apt to frustrate and confuse novices trying out organic, and those seeking in-depth information will have to look elsewhere.

5.0 out of 5 stars Slice of Organic Life, May 23 2009
By Tamara Del Bel "Meadows" (Ontario, Canada) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I love this book. It is informative on many aspects of organic country living and the photos are a visual delight! A friend of mine purhcased the last copy at a local store and after viewing hers, I just had to order my own copy. Nice book for anyone who wants to make the switch to organic, sustainable living and enjoy many tips on how to get started. Lots of info on many different topics.

4.0 out of 5 stars Turn on to an Organice Lifestyle, April 16 2008
By Norma Lehmeierhartie (New York, USA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This is a beautiful book, filled with luscious photographs. It is divided into three parts:

Projects without a yard
Projects with a roof terrace, patio or tiny yard
Projects with lots of space

Appropriate recipes and tips accompany each section. For example, for projects without a yard, there are recipes to make organic baby food, how to save energy and how to bake bread.

The third section discusses the raising of farm animals, like cows, goats, pigs and ducks, and is accompanied with lovely photographs.

This book is eye candy for the green wannabe or green farm wannabe. It is a great gift for the novice, as the photographs evoke images of the perfect green lifestyle and make a strong call to change our unsustainable ways. For many readers already living a green lifestyle in an apartment or the suburbs, the third section represents the dream of a simpler, more rustic farming lifestyle.

There are useful tips and nice recipes; a Slice of the Organic Life is a good starting point to greener living. The beautiful photographs are the strong point, however. Serious lifestyle changes would require additional knowledge to what this book offers.

Author of the award winning book, Harmonious Environment: Beautify, Detoxify and Energize Your Life, Your Home and Your Planet.
