Here's an encouarging interview from Kevin Swanson and Generations Radio with two Christian farming families.

Let me just say that even if you can't start farming now, you can probably at least start with garden and then instill a vision within your children for them to farm when they get older.

Here's the synopis from Kevin Swanson...

Rebuilding Family Economies

Powerful Systems have been put in place in order to eliminate the possibility of family economies succeeding. They've worked to disintegrate family economies. In the 1930's, there were 7,000,000 families making a living in agriculture. Today, that number is closer to 1,000,000! Thanks to federal price controls, federal subsidies, preferential treatment for companies like Monsanto, and non-sustainable agricultural systems, the family farm is fast disappearing. Is the Family Farm Viable? That's the question that we posed on the internet, and the answer is coming back with a resounding, YES!!!!!! Kevin Swanson interviews Lance Seppi from the Seppi Family Honey Farm, and Robert Hutchins from Rehoboth Ranch, north of Dallas, TX. Here is one of the most eye-opening programs we have ever done on Family Oikonomia's. Teamwork. Debt-free living. Family integrity. Reliance on God. Sustainability. Family is breaking down. Agriculture is breaking down. Could these pioneering efforts on the part of these families mark the salvaging of both family and farming?
