The Simple Hearth Of The Small Farm

Farming Is Not Just For Growing Crops, It Is For The Cultivation...o F Human Beings!

One Thing Is All Things. To Resolve One Matter, One Must Resolve All Matters. Changing One Thing Changes All Things. Once I Made The Decision To Sow Rice In The Fall, I Found That I Could Also Stop Transplanting, And Plowing, And Applying Chemical Fertilizers, And Preparing Compost, And Spraying Pesticides.

When A Decision Is Made To Cope With The Symptoms Of A Problem, It Is Generally Assumed That The Corrective Measures Will Solve The Problem Itself. They Seldom Do. Engineers Cannot Seem To Get This Through Their Heads. These Countermeasures Are All Based On Too Narrow A Definition Of What Is Wrong. Human Measures And Countermeasures Proceed From Limited Scientific Truth And Judgment. A True Solution Can Never Come About In This Way.

Unless People Can Become Natural People, There Can Be Neither Natural Farming Nor Natural Food.

As We Kill Nature, We Are Killing Ourselves, And God Incarnate As The World As Well.
