Folks, This Ain't Normal: A Farmer's Advice for Happier Hens, Healthier People, and a Better World

by Joel Salatin

Description

Drawing on decades of experience as a farmer and food advocate, the author examines how modern life has distanced people from healthy food, meaningful work, strong communities, and the natural world. Through lively anecdotes and practical guidance, he explores more sustainable approaches to farming, eating, parenting, family life, and environmental stewardship—offering everyday changes that can have far-reaching effects. Blending science, down-home philosophy, and sharp humor, the book challenges conventional ideas about what is “normal” while making a spirited case for local food, humane animal care, and a closer relationship with the land. Its provocative yet accessible perspective invites readers to rethink their habits and help build a healthier, more connected world.
