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?
