  1. Farm more like Joel Salatin. Look up Polyface Farms, Swoope, VA.

    Reduce #’s of huge monocrop operations, reduce tillage, reduce use of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides, use more natural materials and methods, sell more locally and ship less, put manure to its proper use as a soil nutrient rather than treating as a waste product, STOP GMO’s.

    Short story: sustainable organic farming with local markets.
