Joel Salatin is the worlds most famous farmer, visionary owner of Polyface farms, author, lecturer, entrepreneur, and humble servant of ecology.
Some of Joels writing and speaking topics include: sustainable farming, questioning assumptions, food policy, redeeming the earth, food systems, soil development, ecology, community, biosecurity, food borne pathogens, energy, integrity, humane husbandry, etc, etc.
I reached out to him because I am cofounder on a new sustainable farm/eco village/retreat center project, and I wanted to connect with him to better understand the possibilities.
In this clip, Joel explains which farming communities are successful, and why it's important more and more people gather to build a positive parallel universe:

01:22 Creating a community of resilience vs. cloistered abbey
02:44 The goal of the community
04:09 Who succeeds in the farming community life?
05:20 The anology with covid-19
07:34 Building a parallel universe
