Developed for the particular needs of the working farm, heritage breeds have proved invaluable to small-scale agricultural production for centuries.

With profiles of heritage poultry, sheep, cattle, and more, you'll learn how to select and successfully raise the breed that is right for your specific needs. Enjoy the benefits of resilient livestock while preserving genetic diversity for future generations., This inviting, visual guide to the world of heritage livestock explains why conserving heritage breeds is important, how to raise the profiled species (including chickens, turkeys, ducks, geese, rabbits, pigs, sheep, goats, cattle, donkeys, and horses), and who are the people working to preserve these breeds.
