Farming for the Long Haul is a guide to building a viable small farm economy - one that can withstand the economic, political, and climatic shock waves that the twenty-first century portends. It details the innovative work of contemporary farmers, but more than anything else it draws from the experience of farming societies that maintained resilient agricultural systems over centuries of often turbulent change.
