“We need a revitalization of farming communities and farming culture. A century
ago, even in the absence of the air and auto transport systems we now take for
granted, small towns across this land strove to provide their citizens with lectures,
concerts, libraries, and yearly chautauquas. Over the past decades these same towns
have seen their best and brightest young people fee frst to distant colleges and
then to the cities. The folks left behind have done their best to maintain a cultural
environment, but in all too many cases that now consists merely of a movie theater
and a couple of video rental stores. Farming communities must be interesting,
attractive places if we expect people to inhabit them and for children to want to stay
there.” - Richard Heinberg, “Fifty Million Farmers”
