Joel Salatin is a visionary farmer driven by faith, family, and a passion for God’s creations. When state regulators and inspectors threaten to shut down his farm for refusing industrial norms, he fights back with truth, courage, and a deep belief in God’s design for nature. At Polyface Farm, Joel’s innovative methods mimic natural processes to restore the land and raise healthier animals. With a belief that we’re called to steward the Earth, Joel shares his vision for the future of agriculture.
