Mountain Know-How
Mountain people have always known how to make something out of very little. They grew food, preserved what they couldn’t use right away, repaired what was broken, reused what they had, and found practical ways to get things done.
Mountain Know-How carries that spirit of resourcefulness forward. Here you’ll find practical ideas for growing and preserving food, stretching the grocery budget, fixing instead of replacing, saving money around the home, and preparing for times when everyday conveniences may not be available.
Some of these skills are old, some are new, but the idea behind them is the same: use what you have wisely, learn what you can do for yourself, and make it last.
