I love these ideas of smallness, lightness, naturalness, independence, conservation, ecology, and sustainability.

It relates to Eco-Eating at http://www.brook.com/veg , especially in that it is best for personal and as well as planetary health.

What a great guy.

Creating a more labor-intensive agricultural system is against everything we've been "fighting for" as a society for a long time. It's wonderful to hear someone speak eloquently to the need for balance.

I was at a forestry conference not long ago where one man stood up and said "some people want forests the way they were 200 years ago, but do they want women dying in childbirth and polio and [on and on]". It is important that people not think of working on the land as a move backwards. It's not a move backwards; we can integrate small agriculture with a modern world. We can have polio vaccine in the same world that we have local foods.

Right on. Thank you Sandor Katz for spreading the word.  Let's patronize our local farmers' markets and let's support the organizations that make them possible (in Massachusetts FMFM--the Mass. Federation of Farmers Markets).
