Homesteader's Guide to Keeping Geese Giveaway Package ~ $200 Value!

This is a sponsored post. Thanks to Homestead Bloggers Network for providing me this promotion and giveaway information to share with my readers.

I've always thought that having geese on my farm would be a great experience and that they would be a great addition to chickens. I might someday own geese on my farm. I do like the idea that they have larger eggs and that we could have another source of eggs on the farm than just our chickens. I am excited to have been given a copy of The Modern Homesteader's Guide to Keeping Geese to read myself. Also I am thrilled to share this giveaway with you!! This would be a wonderful opportunity to be able to have a great resource right at your fingertips, start your own family of geese, and help them cozy and fed during the winter. Please read more about the book and the giveaway below.

About The Modern Homesteader's Guide to Keeping Geese:
While chickens preen in the spotlight, geese are the historic unsung heroes of small farms and homesteads. Providing weed control, large eggs, and entertainment, and acting as "security" over other animals, geese are the ultimate modern homesteading companion.

The Modern Homesteader's Guide to Keeping Geese covers everything you need to know to raise geese, including:

• Profiles of breeds and how to select the best one for your needs 
• How to "imprint" goslings on a person Feeding, housing, animal health, and cold weather care
• Using geese for weed control, soil improvement, and as "watch-geese" 
• Cooking with goose eggs and meat 

Additional coverage includes a look at the rich history of geese on farms in North America and Europe that will enhance any goose keeper's enjoyment of these intelligent and unique birds.

This practical guide is a must-have essential for the kitchen table of homesteaders, small farmers, permaculturists, agriculturalists, and professional farmers looking to add the power of geese to their land.
