The Goal of The Course
We are very excited to give you the chance to learn directly from Joel Salatin about how exactly to plan your farm. The main goal of this course is to help you craft a broad level farm plan. Identify acres of production, markets to serve, enterprises to run, and costs to run each. At the end of this course we want you to clearly know which enterprise is a right fit for you, your market, and your land.
We want you to have a sense of exactly how which products you will be selling, much revenue you want to be earning, who your customers will be, how many people you will need on your team, and what infrastructure is critical to your success.
We have Joel teaching and answering your questions once a week for five weeks. With that, we want you to get laser focused on your next steps and identify your biggest challenges to overcome.
About Joel Salatin
Joel Salatin, 61, calls himself a Christian libertarian environmentalist capitalist lunatic farmer. Others who like him call him the most famous farmer in the world, the high priest of the pasture, and the most eclectic thinker from Virginia since Thomas Jefferson. Those who don’t like him call him a bio-terrorist, Typhoid Mary, charlatan, and starvation advocate.
He co-owns, with his family, Polyface Farm in Swoope, Virginia. Featured in the New York Times bestseller Omnivore’s Dilemma and award-winning documentary Food Inc., the farm services more than 5,000 families, 50 restaurants, 10 retail outlets, and a farmers’ market with salad bar beef, pigaerator pork, pastured poultry, and forestry products. When he’s not on the road speaking, he’s at home on the farm, keeping the callouses on his hands and dirt under his fingernails, mentoring young people, inspiring visitors, and promoting local, regenerative food and farming systems.
With a room full of debate trophies from high school and college days, 12 published books, and a thriving multi-generational family farm, he draws on a lifetime of food, farming and fantasy to entertain and inspire audiences around the world. He’s as comfortable moving cows in a pasture as addressing CEOs in a Wall Street business conference.
Salatin is the editor of The Stockman Grass Farmer, granddaddy catalyst for the grass farming movement. He writes the Pitchfork Pulpit column for Mother Earth News, as well as numerous guest articles for ACRES USA and other publications.
