RE: Is Regenerative Agriculture on the Fringe?
There is definitely a paradigm shift of “quality vs. quantity” going on there. However, the rewards of working hard for one’s direct future well being (especially when it comes to preparing storage food) is not even comparable to selling one’s time into a wage-slave arrangement.
It is this well being that I believe exists in the nostalgia and romanticism of “farm life” which endures to this day. Farmers in this day and age do work hard, yet many of them feel as disassociated and despondent as the rest of us because they’re not providing for themselves any longer, but serve as subcontractors to a long list of industrialist corporations.
Well said. I think that needs to be discussed more clearly. I think a lot of people jump in to these things thinking it’ll free them from work. But I think it will, more importantly, free your work. You’ll own your work and your time. To me that’s priceless.
Well said.
