Letters to a Young Farmer
Author: Martha Hodgkins
Publisher: Chronicle Books
ISBN: 1616896035
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 179
Book Description
An agricultural revolution is sweeping the land. Appreciation for high-quality food, often locally grown, an awareness of the fragility of our farmlands, and a new generation of young people interested in farming, animals, and respect for the earth have come together to create a new agrarian community. To this group of farmers, chefs, activists, and visionaries, Letters to a Young Farmer is addressed. Three dozen esteemed leaders of the changes that made this revolution possible speak to the highs and lows of farming life in vivid and personal letters specially written for this collaboration. Barbara Kingsolver speaks to the tribe of farmers—some born to it, many self-selected—with love, admiration, and regret. Dan Barber traces the rediscovery of lost grains and foodways. Michael Pollan bridges the chasm between agriculture and nature. Bill McKibben connects the early human quest for beer to the modern challenge of farming in a rapidly changing climate. Letters to a Young Farmer is a vital road map of how we eat and farm, and why now, more than ever before, we need farmers.

Book Description
Excerpt from Farm and Fireside: The National Farm Paper; October 10, 1911 One of the best of these letters is written by Mr. Joseph Bolt of Brooklyn, Florida. He is a Northerner who has been in Florida a dozen years and likes it= He has reason to like it, for he. Says he. Has made a home there out of the wilder ness, without money and with poor health. He means poor health to begin with, for he adds that, while he and his wife were poorly in the North. During the twelve years we have. Been here we have enjoyed good health all the time. Mr. Bolt speaks highly of the productiveness of the soil in many parts of the state, as does Mr. S. W. Pentz of Grant. Mr. Pentz went to Florida in 1910 with an invalid wife who has recovered her health. He has had a fine crop of sweet potatoes, and believes he can do as well there as in any part of the North. Mrs. A. M. Reed, who does not give her address, says that after a year on the southeast coast, which she describes as a region of beautiful, prosperous farms, she is charmed with the climate, with its Opportunity for open-air life the year round, and thinks it a fine place for the poor man who is intelligent and industrious.
