Okay, so I just finished reading 'Farms of Tomorrow Revisited' and wow—my brain is buzzing! As someone knee-deep in CSA life (and still figuring out raw milk logistics), this book hit different.
First off, Trauger Groh? Absolute legend. His European farmer wisdom had me nodding like a bobblehead. The way he ties spirituality to farming ('Don’t work too many hours'—yes, king!) made me rethink my entire veggie patch hustle.
The meat debate chapter (pun intended) slapped hard. Groh respectfully clapping back at vegan farmers while defending livestock’s role? Controversial but necessary tea.
PSA: Skip the PDF—this deserves physical shelf space. McFadden’s CSA case studies alone justify the price tag. That 1997 update? Still freakishly relevant today.
Final verdict: 5/5 stars for making me want to quit my job and start a commune. My tomato plants salute you.
