Joel Salatin Quote: “Nobody walks well first, nobody writes well first and nobody cooks well first.”
Joel Salatin Quote: “If everybody walks into the room wearing crutches you don’t know who can stand on their own two feet.”
Joel Salatin Quote: “That ought to be our stewardship mandate, to create Edens wherever we go. That’s why humans are here. Our responsibility is to extend forgiveness into the landscape.”
Joel Salatin Quote: “I don’t want to sound too mystical or weird but it’s important to know what garlic smells like when it’s cooking, or what eggs look like when they’re cracked out of a shell.”
Joel Salatin Quote: “I’m a Christian-libertarian-environmentalist-capitalist-lunatic. It’s a humorous way for me to describe that I’m not stereotypical.”
Joel Salatin Quote: “When a container of foreign goodies arrives in the village, everyone mobs the freebies and takes the Western handouts. This collapses the local business and these displaced go-getters become the famous warlords we in the West have all learned are the nexus of all those people’s problems.”
Joel Salatin Quote: “Every day when I wake up and head out for chores, I’m struck by the beauty we enjoy on our farm. Based on visitors’ comments, that’s a shared awareness. Not one of our doors has a skull and crossbones. We want visitors to be struck not by what we’ve done, but rather by how we’ve caressed this beautiful niche of God’s creation into a productive and profoundly inspiring place.”
Joel Salatin Quote: “If every American for one week refused to eat at a fast-food joint, it would bring concentrated animal feeding operations to their knees.”
Joel Salatin Quote: “A farm regulated to production of raw commodities is not a farm at all. It is a temporary blip until the land is used up, the water polluted, the neighbors nauseated, and the air unbreathable. The farmhouse, the concrete, the machinery, and outbuildings become relics of a bygone vibrancy when another family farm moves to the city financial centers for relief.”
Joel Salatin Quote: “How many of us lobby for green energy or protected lands, but don’t engage with the local bounty to lay by for tomorrow’s unseasonal reality? That we tend to not even think about this as a foundation for solutions in our food systems shows how quickly we want other people to solve these issues.”
Joel Salatin Quote: “A Virginia subdivision now has restricted deed covenants against ‘farming and other nuisances’. Can you imagine? In our culture, we are actually labeling farming as a nuisance. What have we done to ourselves, that the oldest and noblest vocation on earth, the educated agrarian proletariat envisioned by Thomas Jefferson, has been reduced to nothing more than a nuisance?”
Joel Salatin Quote: “I see it routinely when I get asked to speak at conferences. I’m supposed to come cheap because, after all, I’m just a farmer. If you’re smart and capable, you become a doctor, engineer, lawyer, computer technician – anything white collar. For goodness’ sake, don’t wear a blue collar. That makes your mother and me a failure and our friends will wonder about our family.”
Joel Salatin Quote: “Despite all the hype about local or green food, the single biggest impediment to wider adoption is not research, programs, organizations, or networking. It is the demonizing and criminalizing of virtually all indigenous and heritage-based food practices.”
Joel Salatin Quote: “Realize that agendas drive data, not the other way round.”
Joel Salatin Quote: “Tolerably good workmen in any of those mechanic arts are sure to find employ, and to be well paid for their work, there being no restraints preventing strangers from exercising any art they understand, nor any permission necessary. If they are poor, they begin first as servants or journeymen; and if they are sober, industrious, and frugal, they soon become masters, establish themselves in business, marry, raise families, and become respectable citizens.”
Joel Salatin Quote: “The stronger a culture, the less it fears the radical fringe. The more paranoid and precarious a culture, the less tolerance it offers.”
Joel Salatin Quote: “President Barack Obama, supposed friend of the common man, has put Monsanto’s own vice president, GMO shepherd Michael Taylor, in charge of food safety.”
Joel Salatin Quote: “My imperative is to seek every moment and to live so God is in control.”
Joel Salatin Quote: “This abnormal cheap energy petroleum age may appear to be a bonanza, but in the long run it has shredded boundaries and proximities that defined economic and social normalcy for centuries. In the continuum of human history, this petroleum age is a mere blip. Cheap energy, on a timeline, is scarcely a speck on the chart. Yet we have the audacity, the irrationality, to plunge forward with building designs, suburban designs, transportation designs as if this cheap.”
Joel Salatin Quote: “Today’s orthodoxy thrives on someone else doing the cooking. The single-service packet from the supermarket has replaced the sit-down home-cooked meal as the most common food choice. Easy foodism disengages people from the process and creates a level of food illiteracy unthinkable just a few short decades ago.”
