A Year of Practiculture

Rohan Anderson left his desk job in the city for the richer pleasures of living a simpler life on the land. Over the years he has developed his own principle of practical living. Practiculture is a lifestyle choice. It’s about direct involvement in the day to day elements of living, and at the heart of it, the rewarding choice to grow, hunt and forage beautiful, healthy, sustainable food.



A Year of Practiculture features 100 of Rohan's simple, rustic, seasonal recipes, as well as his observations, victories and failures, and the realities of living a practical life surrendered to the bounty (and hardships) of the land through the seasons. All written in Rohan’s passionate, funny, no-nonsense style.



Recipes include lamb with french flageolet beans; cold smoked bacon; grilled broccoli, almond and siracha salad; Australian salmon with pimenton crust with chili aioli; bottling fruit; elderflower cordial; crumbed quail with roast beetroot mash; sourdough bread; venison port pie; kangaroo ankles (kankles); forest mushroom and onion pie and more! This is the ultimate guide to living by the land in modern times, illustrated throughout with stunning photographs of the Australian landscape and the recipes created from it.
