“I love your ideas, but I only have a few acres. How do I do this at my scale?”

Success with domestic livestock does not require large land bases. Joel Salatin and his family’s Polyface Farm in Virginia lead the world in animal-friendly and ecologically authentic, commercial, pasture-based livestock production. In Polyface Micro he adapts the ideas and protocols to small holdings (including apartments)! Homesteaders can increase production, enjoy healthy animals, and create aesthetically and aromatically pleasant livestock systems. Whether you’re a new or seasoned homesteader, you’ll find tips and inspiration as Joel coaches you toward success and abundance.

 


About Joel Salatin

Editor of The Stockman Grass Farmer magazine, he writes and speaks around the world on food and farm issues. With a long track record of innovation and excellence, Polyface holds educational seminars, farm tours, day camps and events to encourage duplication and understanding.
