What's For Dinner?

Tonight's Guest: Joel Salatin Fields of Farmers, Joel Salatin's 8th book, addresses both prospective interns and older farmers he hopes will follow his lead, learning how to make these enriching and complex partnerships benefit both sides. Joel is a third generation, alternative, full-time farmer in Virginia's Shenandoah Valley. Passionate about the urgency of the farm succession crisis and well-trained interns as the solution, Joel has refined his methods and materials for training interns over many years. 3 generations of Salatins run Polyface Farm, raising salad-bar beef, pastured poultry, eggmobile eggs, pigaerator pork, forage-based rabbits, pastured turkey and forestry products and serving "more than 5,000 families, 10 retail outlets, and 50 restaurants through on-farm sales and metropolitan buying clubs, using relationship marketing."
