Tóm tắt

 When author and homesteader Nicole Faires decided to retrofit an old school bus and tour America’s small farms with her husband and two small children, she expected to learn a lot, be inspired, and have some fun. But what she found disturbed her. Mismanaged small farms
  clueless urbanites setting up shop to “get back to the land”
  a mindless devotion to organic farming
  and, ultimately, the discovery of just how dependent we are on corporations for our food.
