https://stan.store/autumnacresminipetpigs          In this episode of The Pet Pig Podcast, Autumn takes a step outside the usual world of pet pigs to review Joel Salatin's book The Marvelous Pigness of Pigs. While Salatin writes from the perspective of a regenerative farmer raising pigs for food, his core message resonates with all pig people: pigs deserve the right to fully express their “pigness.”           Autumn unpacks Salatin's big ideas—why rooting, foraging, wallowing, and exploring are essential to a pig's wellbeing—and connects them directly to life with pet pigs. From behavior challenges to enrichment and daily routines, she shows how honoring natural instincts is key to raising happy, healthy pigs.           This thoughtful discussion challenges listeners to reflect on what compassionate pig care looks like, whether in a pasture or in a living room. If you've ever struggled with your pig's behavior, or if you want to deepen your understanding of what it means to respect and nurture pigs, this episode offers both inspiration and practical insight.

Parents and families will find rare encouragement here. Joel and Ginny explore how freedom, simplicity, and hands-on living create resilient kids and joyful homes — and why true health begins when we move beyond fear and start nurturing what we're for.

Family farms in America are slowly disappearing, with a 2022 USDA census reporting that America lost 142,000 farms over just five years. The average farmer in America is now nearly 60 years old.But it's not government subsidies that farmers need to stay afloat, says Joel Salatin. What small farmers really need is the freedom to innovate and sell directly to local consumers—without facing a morass of red tape, regulations, and mandates.Salatin, co-owner of Polyface Farms in Virginia, is widely recognized as a leading pioneer of sustainable or regenerative farming practices that enrich the land, rather than depleting it.Over the last half century, Salatin has seen his fair share of what he calls the “food police.” He discovered it was illegal to sell a couple dozen homemade pot pies at the farmers' market without proving he had a certified $50,000 septic system; illegal to process his own meat without sending it to a licensed butcher; illegal for his 17-year-old apprentices to operate a cordless drill—even though they were legally allowed to drive a car; and illegal to build housing without a permit on his farm—an agricultural zone—for his highly popular farmer apprenticeship program.The result? Small farmers have to fight for survival, factory farming wins, and America is less healthy, he says.“In my lifetime I have watched this erosion of farmer access to retail dollars. Meanwhile, we're seeing farmers go out of business hand over fist,” Salatin says.What America really needs is a “Food Emancipation Proclamation,” he says.Salatin is the author of 17 books, including “Everything I Want to Do Is Illegal: War Stories from the Local Food Front.”Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

O produtor rural Joel Salatin tem uma frase que gosto muito: "Quem conhecer quem produz seu alimento, visite a estante de livros dessa pessoa!". Eu sinto muita falta das conversas sobre as leituras que informam nossa visão de mundo e vida no campo, por isso nessa reunião da Confraria Agrária eu trago algumas das referências que tenho estudado e usado nas minhas consultorias, planejamento de propriedades e projeto com os ovinos. Integrar animais em nossas propriedades, mas do que uma opção, tem se tornado uma necessidade! Seja pela piora acentuada e constante dos alimentos de origem animal ofertados nos sistemas alimentares industriais e centralizados ou mesmo pela autonomia sobre o adubo, a pecuária tem se tornado um imperativo para as pessoas que tem ética ecológica e sabem que precisam maximizar a eficiência energética de seus sistemas de produção. O desafio para muitas pessoas é como integrar animais à propriedade e sistemas de produção de forma relamente ecológica e sem depender de insumos que vem das corporações petroquímicas, farmacêuticas e mineradoras. Essa integração ecológica, raramente é apoiada pela zootecnia, agronomia e veterinária vigentes e por isso se torna essencial uma boa rede de apoio, visitar produtores que tiveram sucesso nessa empreitada e muito estudo. Deixo aqui algumas indicações para esse estudo. A Confraria Agrária vai ao ar toda quarta as 10h da manhã.

In this episode, Eric Czaja, active-duty Army officer and regenerative grazing advocate, shares his journey of bringing adaptive grazing practices onto Department of Defense lands. From a small homestead in North Carolina to research at the Naval Postgraduate School, Eric's work has evolved into a groundbreaking effort to connect soil health with national security. The discussion highlights how military bases—managing nearly 27 million acres of land—are beginning to use livestock for vegetation management, reducing fire risks, improving biodiversity, and lowering costs. Eric explains how initial skepticism gave way to visible ecological benefits, including increased wildlife, healthier pastures, and reduced reliance on burning or chemicals. The episode also explores how veterans are finding new purpose in regenerative grazing through programs like Skillbridge and the first Department of Labor-approved grazing apprenticeship, opening pathways for service members to transition into land stewardship careers.

Welcome back to The Integrative Health Podcast! In this episode, I'm joined by Joel Salatin—farmer, author, and speaker, famously known as “The Lunatic Farmer.” Joel describes himself as a Christian libertarian, environmentalist, and capitalist, and he's one of the most provocative voices in the farming and food world.We explore Joel's story of how his family rebuilt a worn-out farm in Virginia into the now-famous Polyface Farm, featured in The Omnivore's Dilemma and Food Inc. Joel shares why he rejects the conventional industrial approach to agriculture, instead pioneering mobile and modular farming models that make it possible for new farmers to start with little debt.We dive into the health consequences of factory farming vs. pastured, stress-free animals, the truth about the “organic” label, and why transparency in farming matters more than certifications. Joel also discusses his vision for a “Food Emancipation Proclamation” that would free small farmers to create real, nourishing, convenient food without government overreach.This is an empowering, thought-provoking conversation for anyone who cares about where their food comes from, how it's grown, and the future of farming.PODCAST: Thank you for listening please subscribe and share!

Today, you're in for a real treat folks.We welcome back to the program one of my all-time favorite humans, Joel Salatin.Named "the most famous farmer in America", Joel has spent his career advocating for sustainable farming practices, and pioneering models that show how food can be grown & raised in ways that:- are regenerative to our topsoils- are more humane to livestock- produce much healthier, tastier food- contribute profitably to the local economyWho wouldn't want that?Well, the government and Big Ag for starters.Joel refers to himself a "lunatic farmer" because so many of the changes he thinks our food systems need are either illegal under current law or mightily resisted by the deep-pocketed corporations controlling production and distribution.But that doesn't stop him from his passion of inspiring others to take a better path. He co-owns and operates, with his family, Polyface Farm in Swoope, Virginia. Featured in the New York Times bestseller Omnivore's Dilemma and award-winning documentary Food Inc., the farm services more than 5,000 families, 50 restaurants, 10 retail outlets, and a farmers' market with produce and pastured beef, pork, poultry, as well as forestry products. On the farm, Joel and his staff pilot new practices, mentor young farmers, educate the public, and produce an excellent set of workshops for those looking to truly 'get their hands dirty' learning how to farm sustainably.He's a true hero to many, including me. And I predict he'll be one of yours, too, by the end of this discussion.For a very important look into the failures & promise of our nation's food system, watch this videoWORRIED ABOUT THE MARKET?

Tales from the Prepper Pantry We topped off green bean canning for the year — another seasonal task checked off the list. We're also setting up long-term canned goods storage at Basecamp so it's easier to rotate and access what we've put up. While I was away, Tactical survived thanks to the stash of homemade convenience meals we'd prepped in advance. Proof that a little forethought goes a long way.

Learn what we can, adapt what fits, and scale up operations here at the Holler. Always learning, always building. Main Topic of the Day: Finding the Ideal Homestead Everybody wants the perfect homestead. Creek in the back, rich soil, gentle slopes, friendly neighbors, no codes, low taxes, a vast homeschooling network, hospital that is close but not TOO close…Oh — and under $200,000, please. Today, we're digging into how to actually find the IDEAL land for your homestead — starting with the real questions, not the fantasy map. Where to go in the state How to choose land Where the best community is Regulatory environment To rent or to own? What does ideal mean? WHY ARE YOUR DOING THIS? What does your ideal day on your land actually look like? Is this about freedom? Fear? Feeding your family? Are you chasing a dream… or running from a disaster? Zac Bauer of  An American Homestead's thoughts on water List what is important to you: Family Hospitals? Entertainment Supplies Church Crime/Safety Kid stuff Tax regulations Cultural mix   HERE IS THE TRUTH THOUGH : the ideal property? It's either taken or priced much higher than you will expect  - and those super nice properties also have hidden problems. That's the problem we're really solving today — what do you do when your dream and your budget don't match? That is when you have to prioritize = prioritize what you truly need in a piece of land as Zac pointed out.  In Fact the best homesteaders I know didn't start with perfect property. They started with a good enough place and made it work. EXAMPLES John Willis, Rock Quarry The Eversoles (bare land) Kerry Brown (off grid) Ryan & Steve (local partners) Shawn Mills (off grid) They didn't find a unicorn property — they built a life anyway.

In this episode of Vitality Made Simple, Joel Salatin, known as the ‘Lunatic Farmer,' explores what he calls our modern ‘guinea pig culture,' where children lack chores, families depend on processed convenience foods, and communities have forgotten how to be stewards of the land. He explains how this disconnect contributes to widespread mental health challenges, from poor self-worth to the loneliness epidemic, and how purpose-driven work and local food systems can help reverse this trend.Joel also dives into the importance of the microbiome, emphasizing that diversity—both in our gut and on our farms—is the key to resilience. He shares fascinating stories of regenerative farming, the powerful effects of rotational grazing, and why even worms can teach us what real food looks like. Throughout the episode, he ties his practical farming wisdom to his faith, reminding us that flourishing comes when we live in harmony with creation and design.Visit my website DrDebbieOzment.com for valuable free downloads.

In this urgent and eye-opening episode, world-renowned farmer Joel Salatin sounds the alarm on the collapse of local food freedom and the dangerous centralization of our food system. With over 40% of farmers nearing retirement and fewer than 1.5% of Americans still farming, the future of your food security is at risk. Joel exposes the corrupt ties between regulators, Big Ag, and Big Pharma, and explains how we've lost the ability to recognize real food, while also offering empowering solutions to reclaim food sovereignty, protect your health, and secure your family's future.   TOPICS DISCUSSED: How government bureaucracy is pushing out small farmers out of business How our food supply is at an extreme risk in the next 10 years How mega corporations and foreign interests are buying farmland to control the food supply How government overreach on your health and food is a leading cause of illness How our nation's food IQ is so low, most people don't recognize actual food when they see it The corruption of the recirculating "CEO" system within Big Ag, Big Pharma, and government agencies What you can do (as just one person) to save your food and your country   More from Joel Salatin: Instagram: @joel_salatin and @polyfacefarm Website: polyfacefarms.com     Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

Joel Salatin—farmer, author, and foreword writer for Ginny Yurich's new book—joins us for his fifth episode, and it's a powerhouse. This conversation is a front-row seat to what happens when you raise kids in real life instead of a classroom. Joel walks us through the radical decision he and his wife made in the 1980s to homeschool, back when it was still illegal in parts of the country and deeply misunderstood. With no research, no co-ops, and no roadmap, they said yes anyway—because they couldn't say yes to the public system, and they couldn't afford private school. The outcome? Two thriving, confident, competent adult children and a family legacy that changed generations. We talk about why the simple things—folding laundry, planting a garden, making muffins—build real competence and self-worth in a world that's often more virtual than visceral. Joel's stories are riveting: from a son who couldn't read at ten to one who now runs the family business with confidence and purpose. If you've ever questioned your decision to homeschool (or are considering it), this conversation will remind you: you don't need to know how it all turns out to know that you're doing something that matters. ** Get your copy of Homeschooling, You're Doing it Right Just by Doing it here Learn more about Joel and all he has to offer here Learn more about your ad choices.

We also talked about how homesteaders can adapt some of Joel's techniques raising small livestock like poultry and rabbits and the importance of ethical slaughter.  We then moved in to leader follower grazing systems, helping our local producers and a ton more.

Regenerative farming pioneer Joel Salatin joins Dr. Jordan B. Peterson to challenge the myth that cows are bad for the planet. They explore how pasture-based farming restores ecosystems, the dangers of industrial agriculture, and why storytelling matters in the fight for the future of food. Joel Salatin, dubbed the "Lunatic Farmer," is a Christian libertarian environmentalist and one of the most outspoken voices in regenerative agriculture. Co-owner of Polyface Farm in Virginia, he supplies thousands with pasture-raised meats and teaches sustainable farming worldwide. With 16 books, such as “The Omnivore's Dilemma," countless columns, and a wildly engaging speaking style, Salatin blends mischief, grit, and deep cultural insight to challenge how we think about food, freedom, and stewardship of the land. This episode was filmed on March, 10th, 2025.  | Links | For Joel Salatin: On X https://x.com/joelsalatin?lang=en Polyface Farms website https://polyfacefarms.com/ Read “Homestead Tsunami: Good for Country, Critters, and Kids” https://a.co/d/5gg3vAV Read “You Can Farm: The Entrepreneur's Guide to Start & Succeed in a Farming Enterprise” https://a.co/d/fX8wSWF
