Joel Salatin Speaks in Fort Collins
Well, it is way to early in the morning, and I have already been awake for over two hours. I just woke up from a sound sleep and could not go back to sleep. Why you might ask? Well, I had been dreaming about space travel, and as I suddenly woke up, I was immediately thinking about the incredible seminar I had attended last night in Fort Collins. Joel Salatin, notorieous for his recent appearances in the movies Fresh and Food Inc. was hosted by the Front Range Permaculture Institute at the Lincoln Center. What a great experience. This man has got it right!!! He is the true ecolonomics expert of today.
Here are just a few quotes from him that I think are cool:
- I am a Christian, Liberitarian, Environmentalist, Capitalist, lunatic.
- The industrial food system is cracking.
- May your pork be rose colored and your rain barrels be full.
- The measure of an open and free society is how it treats its non-conformists.
- Innovation has to be birthed at a prototype size.
This guy is as Randy Jackson would say – The Bomb.
You should google him – Joel Salatin – and check out many of the things he has done and that he promotes. You will not be disappointed.
