In Defense Of The Family Farm

Wendell Berry always says it so well.

His description of the devaluation of work is the argument I have over and over with friends and acquaintances. So many people have traded enjoyment of their work for the dubious guarantee of salary, benefits and paid vacations. I don't know many who are happy with the trade, but they're afraid to do anything else.

Thanks for sharing this.
