More quotes by Joel Salatin
One of the greatest assets of a farm is the sheer ecstasy of life.
Joel Salatin
Farms and food production should be, I submit, at least as important as who pierced their navel in Hollywood this week. Please tell me I'm not the only one who believes this. Please. As a culture, we think we're well educated, but I'm not sure that what we've learned necessarily helps us survive.
Joel Salatin
I see myself today as Sitting Bull trying to bring a voice of Easternism, holism, community-based thinking to a very Western culture.
Joel Salatin
Get in your kitchens, buy unprocessed foods, turn off the TV, and prepare your own foods. This is liberating.
Joel Salatin
I'm a Christian-libertarian-environmentalist-capitalist-lunatic. It's a humorous way for me to describe that I'm not stereotypical.
Joel Salatin
If we fail to appreciate the soul that Easternism gives us, then what we have is a disconnected, Greco-Roman, Western, egocentric, compartmentalized, reductionist, fragmented, linear thought process that counts on cleverness.
Joel Salatin
Nobody walks well first, nobody writes well first and nobody cooks well first.
Joel Salatin
You, as a food buyer, have the distinct privilege of proactively participating in shaping the world your children will inherit.
Joel Salatin
When faith in our freedom gives way to fear of our freedom, silencing the minority view becomes the operative protocol.
Joel Salatin
Despite all the hype about local or green food, the single biggest impediment to wider adoption is not research, programs, organizations, or networking. It is the demonizing and criminalizing of virtually all indigenous and heritage-based food practices.
Joel Salatin
The industrial food system is so cruel and so horrific in its treatment of animals. It never asks the question: 'Should a pig be allowed to express its pig-ness?'
Joel Salatin
The notion that processed food is cheap and integrity foods are prohibitively expensive is simply not true.
Joel Salatin
Remember, machines don't forgive.
Joel Salatin
If you think the price of organic food is expensive, have you priced cancer lately.
Joel Salatin
While vegans and meat-eaters disagree, we can all be united in our fear and hatred for the horror that is factory farming.
Joel Salatin
Know you food, know your farmers, and know your kitchen.
Joel Salatin
Even if you don't eat at a fast food restaurant, you're now eating food that's produced by this system.
Joel Salatin
You wanna get diarrhoea? Eat industrial food.
Joel Salatin
It's a foolish culture that entrusts its food supply to simpletons.
Joel Salatin
'Organic' doesn't mean what people think it means.
