#97 Farms, Food and Health with Joel Salatin


Listen Later

Joel Salatin has been called "America's best farmer" by Time magazine.  He is a self-described Christian libertarian environmentalist capitalist lunatic farmer (his words, not mine!).  He runs Polyface Farms and has helped develop the movement of regenerative agriculture, written 12 books, done multiple TED and TEDMED talks, featured in Michael Pollan's bestselling book The Omnivores Dilemma and multiple award-winning documentaries like Food Inc, and he is the Editor of The Stockman Grass Farmer.

Today we talk about the symbiotic connection between the land, soil, animals and our health.
