The newest volume of the eclectic biannual anthology from the
Greenhorns, a grassroots network for recruiting, promoting and
supporting new American farmers The New Farmer's Almanac, Vol. V is
an antidote to the repeating story of helplessness in the face of
climo-politico-econo-corona-chaos. In these pages, dozens of
contributing writers and artists report from the seas, the borders,
the woods, the fields, and the hives. Farmers, poets, grocers,
gardeners, architects, activists, agitators-all join forces to
re-vision the future of food systems and land use. This is our
Grand Land Plan. The solutions unfurl before us. First, recovery:
farmers and food networks reflect on local resiliency and logistics
from the time of COVID-19. Next, resistance: we invite readers to
consider arguments for land reform, for the localization of food
systems, for policy change in the forest and on the farm, for
solidarity and sovereignty. We share reporting on restoration
projects, from interstate roadsides to intertidal zones to our
civic institutions. There are lessons from honeybees. Designs for
the seaweed commons and for sanctuary. Together, these thinkers
turn their-and our-attention to the long future. The New Farmer's
Almanac is a large-scale inquiry-both visual and literary. Along
with words, readers will find field maps, farm comics, photo
essays, portraits and prints, pearls from the archives, and dozens
of other curiosities. Join us in exploring principles and
strategies for just, adaptive, resourceful, and responsive land use
for all. Contributors to Vol. V include farmer activist Karen
Washington; oyster whisperer and ecologist Anamarija Frankic;
Elizabeth Hoover of Good Warrior Seeds; permaculturist and author
Tao Orion; conservation scientist and author Lauren Oakes; and soil
scientists, regenerative farmers, savanna restorationists,
landscape architects, poets, printmakers, illustrators, and
photographers from around the US and Earth.
