Joel Salatin IS amazing. I heard him on a podcast last week on Jimmy Moore’s Livin’ La Vida Low Carb Show

http://www.thelivinlowcarbshow.com/shownotes/1040/joel-salatin-asks-why-isnt-healthy-natural-food-legal-episode-298/

Listening to Joel talk about integrity in business was partly what inspired me to take the Google ads off my site and do all the work I did to support the NO ON 2 campaign for Ohio.

Big Ag may still win in Ohio (the polls are not looking good) but I think they are scared and with movies like Food Fight and books like Omnivore’s Dilemma, they cannot stand. They will fall.

It’s bad enough that she’s so popular and makes conventional cattle ranching look fun, glamorous, and even humane. I’m sure that Big Ag just loves her as she puts a pretty face on their hideous business. I better not find any PW story or recipes or anything in my next copy of the magazine!

Yeah, I’m getting pretty tired of hearing that cattle ranching (or organic farming for that matter) are not sustainable. It is possible, but it isn’t easy, and it’s a long process. Expecting a ranch or farm to turn conventional to sustainable in a year is probably pretty unrealistic. And it takes a lot of thought, effort and research. The farmers and ranchers who I’ve seen headed that way are Scary Smart and use as much creativity as sweat. I try to support them in every way I possibly can because I really believe it can positively impact our world to pour that much of oneself into what would otherwise be just a job.

As a farmer, it is always interesting to see the naysayers come out of the woodwork when they here of his methods – they think he is scamming everyone because his farm is profitable. Too blind to see what is right in front of them, he shares everything in an effort to see their methods employed elsewhere. That’s real change!

What I like about Joel is that he is not a hypocrite – he walks the talk, whereas so many don’t. Just yesterday, and very vocal environmental blogger was having a give-away on her blog of the Pioneer Woman’s new cookbook, with the disclaimer that the cattle ranch that PW lives on is after all a working cattle ranch so that can’t be sustainable. Joel has as many cows as PW, and they are sustainable and treated in a humane way every day of their lives. No cattle prods, or feeding cottonseed meal crap. My point is that the environmental blogger should have turned down the generous offer of a free book, and really done her research about carbon, humane handling etc, but instead in the quest to get the almighty comments and visits she has sold out. And this person writes for Mother Earth News!

Sorry about the rant on your space – but I am thankful everyday that I heard Joel speak at a farm conference so many years ago – it has made a tremendous difference at our farm and in our minds!!

I am so glad you got the opportunity to hear him speak – he is powerful!
