Sinopsis:
America’s average farmer is sixty years old. When young people can’t get in, old people can’t get out. Approaching a watershed moment, our culture desperately needs a generational transfer of millions of farm acres facing abandonment, development, or amalgamation into ever-larger holdings. Based on his decades of experience with interns and multigenerational partnerships at Polyface Farm, farmer and author Joel Salatin digs deep into the problems and solutions surrounding this land- and knowledge-transfer crisis. This book empowers aspiring young farmers, midlife farmers, and nonfarming landlords to build regenerative, profitable agricultural enterprises.

He speaks internationally to food and farming conferences, has authored 16 books, and is editor of The Stockman Grass Farmer, the world’s premier trade publication for pasture-based livestock farming. Some 15,000 visitors a year come to the farm for tours, food, education, and entertainment. He writes columns for Plain Values magazine, homestead journals, and Manward, an e-magazine.
