Why read it?

1 author picked A Bold Return to Giving a Damn as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

The farm and community are now thriving. It has become my number one recommendation for folks stuck in the industrial farming…

From Rachael's list on Earth lovers and rural regeneration.
