Accidental Farmers
Book Reviews
“Tim Young has written a maddeningly enchanting description of how he and his wife Liz decided to dump their successful careers inthe corporate world and seek a simpler life of organic farming in harmony with nature. With wit, humor and precision, Tim mesmerizes the reader as he and Liz learn how to achieve a life of harmony with the natural world. I promise you a compellingly delightful read.”
Mildred Armstrong Kalish - author of Little Heathens (New York Times Book Review “One of the 10 Best Books of 2007”)
“Tim and Liz Young describe the many benefits of a return to agrarian life, one of which is a return to vibrant health; because the nutrient-dense meat, fat and organ meats of animals fed on fertile soil is the absolute basis of human health and fertility. In a most compelling way, they present that beautiful equation: healthy soil equals healthy animals equals healthy human beings.”Sally Fallon Morell - author of “Nourishing Traditions” and President of the Weston A. Price Foundation
“You may have successful job or career but perhaps you are bored to death with it now and looking for something more challenging. If you have always been attracted to rural life, this book is made for you! Tim and Liz Young recount the joys and sorrows along with the victories and defeats of finding success in one of the most challenging professions; not just farming but also farming a totally natural way. I particularly recommend their thoughts on the ‘dark side of farming’ and Tim’s very well reasoned discussion of what financial profit means in farming.”Gene Logsdon - author of many books including The Contrary Farmer, Holy Shit: Managing Manure to Save Mankind, and the novel Pope Mary and the Church of Almighty Good Food
