Let me go on the record and say that Kathleen does indeed have some wonderful 
ideas about agricultural education reform.  Some of her thoughts prompted an 
evening's worth of discussion in our house a couple of nights ago.
 
It's the smarmy disrespect I could do without...not the Kathleen bit.

I'm afraid you've asked for it Tripp :-)

Anyway its my fault for daring to criticize famous farmer
for sins of omission, letting that valuable farmland slip from his 
grasp. FJ is from my era and I can appreciate where he is coming from.
I hate to think that the public views his farming venture as 
characteristic of the American natural, sustainable, biointensive, 
regenerative agriculture movement, begun in the 1950's and catching hold 
in the 60's and 70's. His is a good example of running a small market 
farming operation with a CSA but the public needs to know that there is 
a greater need, that of greater amounts of acreage and more farms put in 
natural farming ventures and diversified ventures, i.e. farm 
cooperatives, leased land to small farmers, communities, etc. with and 
accompanying education, production, marketing and distribution network.

Kathleens ideas for agriculture education reform are interesting.

Of, by and for the farmers.
