Welcome to our corner of the internet. We have been bringing you advice and information on everything Selfsufficientish since April 2004 and decided that is was time for a spring clean. All of your favourite articles are still available, some might have different names and some of the ones you did not like should have gone for good. If this is the first time you have been here then Hello. We are selfsufficientish, a website for anyone who wants to be a little more selfsufficient - ish. See our philosophy for more details on what selfsufficientish means. We call it the urban guide to almost self sufficiency, a sort of urban home homesteading site. In fact the worlds first urban home homesteading site as we were founded in 2004. We have been saving money when credit crunch could have been a breakfast cereal or a health food bar.The Urban Guide to almost Self sufficiency. We are identical twins and if you would like to tell us apart Dave Hamilton is the one on the left and Andy Hamilton is the one on the right being very self sufficient holding the fork. Dave has side burns and is skinny and Andy is the better looking one. Our writing team of 3, Andy and Dave Hamilton and Nev Sweeney will be writing a little bit more on here so expect 
many more new articles over the coming weeks and months. In fact if you look closely enough you might find some extracts from our most recent book. To find out how you can buy this then click on one of the adverts for it. I am afraid that we can't sell it directly as the warehouse is empty! So get a copy quickly before it sells out everywhere. We are quite proud of this book and it is a years work each for myself and Dave. It is packed full of ways to not just save our environment to save you much more than the cover price in money. Use our search over to the left to look for advice on anything from growing stuff in a small space to foraging for food. Or if you want to join in and have a chat with thousands of other people just like you then please do join our forum. 
December is here and this means that time has run out on our very easy and free to enter competition. You have missed your chance to win a truly unique copy of the Selfsufficientish Bible, everywhere that I (Andy) stopped on my 677 cycle ride from Bristol to Aberdeenshire I got people to sign a copy of the Selfsufficeintish bible. This means that it is the only Self sufficient ish Bible signed by myself, Dave, my Nan, Mum and Dad two of the moderators and a whole host of other wonderful ishers and people that I met on the way. To enter the competition all you had to do was join our forum and post your top two tips. That really is it and you could have won probally the most valuable copy of the Self Sufficient ish bible in existence. Not to worry there will be a new competiton soon and we have loads of books to give away you could win one of ECO LOGIC's book (possibly the best online bookshop in the world) or one of 4 copies of recently re-released Keeping Poultry and rabbits on Scraps 
Welcome to the New'ish site! It is still evolving (just like a garden) some things will change and extra features are being added all the time by our wonderful web fella John. Are you creative and in Bath? - Have a look at one of my mates site, it needs some input. oh and go to the forum.Interested in comedy German techno?
