Modern Självhushållning

This is a self-sufficiency book for the 2020s. Alva Herdevall and Anders Rydell combine traditional methods with modern ideas to show that a higher degree of self-sufficiency is possible for everyone.

In Modern självhushållning, you’ll learn the secrets of beekeeping, how to grow your own cut flowers, and how to pluck a duck. Discover how to make gin and tonic from scratch, churn and ferment butter, and mix up shoe wax. Turn invasive slugs into foie gras and rhubarb stalks into refreshing summer wine. And why not make your own skincare, hatch chicks, and craft your own fermented milk?

At their home outside Uppsala, Alva Herdevall and Anders Rydell run a small-scale self-sufficient homestead with flower cultivation, a kitchen garden, chickens, ducks, and bees. Swedish text.
