Letters to a Young Farmer: On Food, Farming, and Our Future by

3.0

Although I enjoyed reading this collection, most of the essays echoed a similar theme that our current farmers are aging out, very few younger people are filling up the ranks, and we need greater emphasis on sustainable agricultural practices. All this combined to make the collection repetitive. Barbara Kingsolver's essay was the most beautiful of the bunch. Raj Patel's essay was startling--in a good way.
