Summary

Joel Salatin is a self-described, “Christian libertarian environmentalist capitalist lunatic farmer.” If that confuses you, that's the point. But Joel explains how every part of that moniker is purposeful, and it all starts with Christ. He explains how his livestock farming has become a living classroom for gospel truths of mercy, provision, and redemption. He teaches Glenn about the “glory of the pig,” the importance of earthworm health over Wall Street, and why a non-chemical farm that skips vaccines and GMOs better reflects the Creator’s design. Glenn asks why beef prices are so high and Joel proclaims that’s its time for a “food emancipation proclamation." This MAHA-meets-Jesus discussion about what we consume — physically and spiritually—may just change your life.
