God has blessed me with stewardship over a couple acres of farmable land and I vaguley remember seeing a book somewhere about how to make a livable profit on small acreage... so I went to amazon.com to try to track down this book and used the search terms 'small acreage farm profit' and the number one book that appeared in the list?

    Government and Not-for-Profit Account:Concepts and Practices 

Now, I know that God will provide all that I need... but I really hope this is not Him giving me a hint...

Anyway, I'm looking for a nuts and bolts type of book on small acreage farming.  I'm in eastern Ohio and would dearly like to get at least 1/2 acre into production for this year.  I've sifted through tons of sites on various plants, etc, etc... an am overwhelmed with all the variables and was hoping for some sort of guide on how to get started. At this point, I do not have greenhouses, etc... but have some good land on a nice sunny southern slope

Any suggestions for a good 'beginner crop' so that I can begin to get a handle on marketing produce locally would be greatly appreciated.
