Parents, educators, teens, and children will find inspiration for back-to-roots living.
Not only a resource for teachers and homeschooling parents, The Children’s Heritage Sourcebook is a cookbook, manual, and activity book teaching modern homegrown practices of self-sufficiency to children, teenagers, and adults alike.
The activities, eighty-five recipes, and projects are complementary and pertinent to the curriculum of kindergarten through eighth grade, with some specific to the teen years.

Lavishly illustrated with 250 full-color images from photographer Sara Prince, this reference book is comfortable on a classroom desk, on your kitchen table, or laid open for use in your backyard garden.

Praise For…
"The Women’s Heritage Sourcebook by Ashley Moore and Lauren Malloy and Emma Rollin Moore and Audria Culaciati is a bountiful resource for anyone looking to get tips on country living. If we learned anything from the 2020 pandemic it is that life skills, such as gardening, cooking, herbalism, canning and animal raising helps us feel empowered and secure. This book is a collaboration between four authors; all bringing their own content and wisdom. Teaching children about the elements of homesteading and sustainability is also more important than ever. Look for their new book: The Children's Heritage Sourcebook: Back-To-Roots Living for Kids and Teens, to be released next year." —CULTIVATEDMAGAZINE.COM
