  1. IIRC, http://www.MotherEarthNews.com had a plan. Check their archives.

    Also, Joel Salatin and Polyface Farms of the Shenandoah Valley in Virginia, were profiled in part of the book “The Omnivore’s Dilemna” by Michael Pollan (2006) – a very good book.

    Joel has written many articles in several magazines, and has posted an extensive resource list here:

    You might be able to find ideas or plans for a tractor.
