It Isn't Even a Book!

"Farmageddon: The Unseen War on American Family Farms" is a documentary film, the story of small family farms practicing organic, sustainable agriculture who were forced to "cease and desist" by government agents -- yes, in the United States -- sometimes at gunpoint. The beginning of "Get Big or Get Out" began with Earl Butz in the 1970s, but "Farmageddon" highlights much more than the economic pressure of markets and government policies. You don't need to be a farmer to find this film compelling and riveting. You're an American, and you buy and eat food. You should hear and see this story.
