Ben Hartman is a true innovator for the small farm.--Curtis Stone, author of The Urban Farmer It\'s time to think big about small farms. Award-winning author and green leader (Grist) Ben Hartman shares practical how-to tips, personal stories, and surprising examples of cutting-edge farmers and innovators around the world to show us how. In the early 1970s, US Agriculture Secretary Earl Butz infamously commanded farmers to get big or get out.
