We should not underestimate how hard it will be to break the grip of agribusiness and processed food companies and supermarket chains. But small farms are still there to be celebrated.

    • I'm not a farmer, but have been "Living in the country" for about 13 years now.....former residents" Philadelphia, New Jersey, South Florida (Hollywood). I don't know a whole lot about it, but I've been reading enough about the Agribusiness, and the awful treatment of livestock, that "Free-Range" farming and smaller farms sounds good to me.
