John Ikerd - Small Farms Are Real Farms

Farmer Brad interviews John Ikerd, Professor Emeritus of Agricultural Economics at the University of Missouri.  Dr. Ikerd has written extensively on how sustainable farming practices affect and are affected by industrialization, the environment, economics, and communities.  LISTEN ONLINE >>

Our newly established chapter of the Weston A. Price Foundation was developed out of our family and friend's interest to promote healthy living with traditional diets, to have a supportive community and to help connect others with the finest locally produced food in our area.

 

"Let us never forget that the cultivation of the earth is the most important labor of man.  When tillage begins, other arts follow.  The farmers, therefore, are the founders of civilization."  - Daniel Webster
