Welcome to the Cobblemead Website!

The purpose of this site is to offer hard-won old-time knowledge about making a clean, decent and secure living from inexpensive rural lands using part-time effort and low-cost methods.

Want the leisure time necessary for the pursuit of happiness?  To help others?  To earn and save money?  For self-improvement?  Or just loafing?

Thousands of folks have learned to make a living by low-cost husbandry of inexpensive marginal property, using our literature on husbanding the land.

We believe the old proverb "Giving a needy man a fish feeds him today; teaching him to fish feeds him all his life."  Self-support know-how is what poor folks need; give it with our books.
