Joel Salatin of Polyface Farm fights to free small farms from regulatory red tape, championing direct farmer-to-consumer sales and regenerative agriculture.
As the government seeks to drive the human race into extinction: starving them out by taking the farmland away. Creating diseases and poison drugs are not getting any more attention or money. Farms are needed more than what they are destroying them for!
Keep growing!! I have my garden. I sell produce for a living full time at a small family-owned store as well as receiving Social Security. Independence as well as freedom from medical scams and Insurance Mafia extortion are key to a good life.
They speak with forked tongue: just like they starved out Native Americans, they’re trying to kill their own countrymen by any means necessary. When you deal with the Government, you deal with the Devil.
If more Americans truly understood how much small family farms have been pushed out of the market and how much they have declined over the last 100+ years from where we started, there would be much broader support. Sadly, this information is well hidden from the average consumer.
Yes! I sell produce at a small family owned store. In the past few years, our main apple supplier died and his family sold their orchard to a developer to build tax producing houses. We bought 35,000 pounds of apples in a season. Another local farmer near Ida, Michigan passed away and his family sold the farm. Haven’t seen such great broccoli, cabbage and cauliflower since. I’m against government subsidies as they rob the recipient of their dignity and freedom to run their own business, their way. Even EBT keeps people under government control and surveillance and will cut you off if you make any money. Government interference brings everyone down to a poverty level beggar.
Could you help us Joel? I’m in Mt Jackson, VA and Spanberger has just initiated a 56,000 sq ft Solar Panel Manufacturing plant. They’re want to build 4 more. They’re buying up our farmland in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley. Do you know what I can do?
With countless acres of rooftops where nothing grows, why must the criminally idiotic and thoughtless politicians destroy our fertile, arable lands to install 'green' energy that isn't even reliable?
Thank you for this wonderful story of a self-sustaining, on-going journey. Awesome! Much more though than “a story” because the fruits of this labor are an inspiration that bring life and wholeness and health to humanity!
There was talk of having Joel Salatin involved officially with MAHA. I was sorry to see that never went anywhere. He is a visionary, sane and reasonable man, world renowned. His policies and practices would revolutionize food production and save small farms. He should be offered an official spot in a position where he can point out and derail the idiocy of big government regulating farming.
I visited Joel's farm some years to give my daughter a first experience of what a farm ought to look like. What Joel is doing makes sense and will help everyone, especially our children. I've written up my experiences with Joel on my SS, here's the link for those interested. Thank you Joel! https://johnathanedwardsmd.substack.com/p/joel-salatins-food-emancipation-proclamation?r=1j3a1i
Great article! Thank a guy “gets it”, and people should adopt his freedom attitude! I love that he’s making a “mark” on the premise of getting farming back to where it used to be, and no chemicals but using the knowledge of science (God’s ultimate way), to make America Healthy Again!
How are farms and agriculture to survive cloud seeding, geoengineering, and weather modification/warfare programs? Every day toxic chemicals such as sodium chloride (salt), silver iodide, strontium, aluminum nanoparticles are aerosol sprayed into our atmosphere advancing programs to cool the planet by blocking the sun's rays from reaching the earth. SAI (Stratospheric Aerosol Injection, and SRM (Solar Radiation Management) are programs using chemicals for the purpose of controlling our weather.
All of this is resulting in bioengineered food and lab grown meat.
The EPA, though aware, has not yet moved to regulate what has become unregulated malice. Corporations, including the Military Industrial Congressional complex, are profiteering from climate combat.
Weather modification pilots and meteorologists, and tomorrow.io, Palantir's AI generated weather control platform, decide how to "own the weather" as in the Air Force program Owning The Weather 2025.
None of this is regulated nor is it "sustainable."
Old McDonald won't survive the onslaught of Big Tech interference with Nature.
Oh, but then again, VP Vance, at his residence at the US Naval Observatory, just installed a chicken coop stocked with a dozen baby chicks at his
It's astounding that running a small farm is essentially illegal. That must change.

Polyface literally means many faces. Gubmint regulation is massive over reach
the opposite of sovereignty. It is also the solution favored by liberals.
Many who declard Christian faith also think farming equates with raising and
killing animals for food or selling the carcass' for $$$.
That is the opposite of evolution. Notice the first 4 letters of that word in reverse...
Why exactly did Jesus turn the tables in the temple... Not the conventional answer
the actual reason...
Joel is absolutely correct. Government needs to get out of the people's way on farming and much more!
Indeed
The government needs to get out of its need to control. This should be a free country.
They speak with forked tongue: just like they starved out Native Americans, they’re trying to kill their own countrymen by any means necessary. When you deal with the Government, you deal with the Devil.
Excited for a future with a whole lot less regulation and big brokers of food!!!
Yes, please
I’m with this farmer 100%

For starters urge farmers to not sale

I wish I had that power.

Thank you for this good update on Joel Salatin, whom I have long admired, and his Polyface Farm—a shining example for other family farmers.
Yes! We need more of this.
Thank you for all your efforts!
