Books are such a comfort in these weird times! Hope you all are doing well and staying well.

I just finished this last night and it was so good. We are in the process of growing our small homestead and growing our own food and every time I sat down and read a chapter, I was more and more inspired to keep at it. We love what we do and why we do it.

“This wasn‘t New Age thinking. It wasn‘t fringe or alternative. It wasn‘t left wing or right wing, and it certainly wasn‘t a temporary fad. It was the way we were, on our terms, successfully growing food. Lots of food.”
Loving every minute of this book. Sums up why we do what we do here

"When they asked me why organic food was so expensive I came up with a new response. "First shouldn't we figure out why the other food is so cheap?""

This memoir takes us through the authors experience trying to save the family farm. If you are interested in sustainable organic farming this is a must read. 4 stars. 4 hours. I used Overdrive and my Local Library to read this ebook.
