E36: Embracing Hope in Uncertain Times: Freedom in Food and Farming | John Klar
Having conversations about uncertain times ahead can often leave us feeling fearful or full of despair, but this conversation with Farmer John is one filled with hope. He shares the truth about the history of farming, where things are now, and what we may see in the future, all while offering us encouragement about what is possible. No matter where you are in your journey of growing your own food, let this episode inspire you to keep fighting the good fight.

What led John from his law practice into the homesteading life
The importance of food security and farm freedom
A brief history of industrialized food and the threat to farming
The deeper problem with synthetic meat and why we should not feel threatened
What you can do to embrace hope in the face of uncertain times
How the Bible informs our worldview around food and farming
