One fateful day in 1996, upon discovering that five freight cars'
worth of glittering corn have reaped a tiny profit of $18.16, young
Forrest Pritchard undertakes to save his family's farm. What
ensues--through hilarious encounters with all manner of livestock
and colorful local characters--is a crash course in sustainable
agriculture. Pritchard's biggest ally is his renegade father, who
initially questions his son's career choice and eschews organic
foods for sugary mainstream fare. But just when the farm starts to
turn heads at local markets, his father's health takes a turn for
the worse. With poetry and humor, this timely memoir tugs on the
heartstrings and feeds the soul long after the last page is turned.
