Sustainable Food [Paperback] Mobbs, Michael

Michael Mobbs — the sustainability guru who famously made his Sydney terrace self-sufficient on water and energy — turns his attention to what's on your plate. This isn't another preachy manifesto about locavorism or a cookbook disguised as activism. It's a practical, sharply written guide to growing, sourcing, and thinking about food differently. Mobbs walks you through backyard vegetable patches, guerrilla composting, keeping chickens in small spaces, and navigating farmers' markets without the farmers' market pretension. He's done the work himself, made the mistakes, and distilled it into something genuinely useful. If you've ever wanted to opt out of industrial food systems but didn't know where to start — or thought you needed acreage and a trust fund — this is your entry point. For anyone ready to get their hands dirty and eat better for it.
