“The chickens keep the earth from getting indigestion,” explained Joel Salatin on our first stop of the hay wagon tour of Polyface Farm. “Excuse me,” asked someone a beat later. “Did you say the earth gets indigestion?” “Indeed it does!” Salatin boomed back with his trademark enthusiasm and grin. “The soil is the earth’s stomach!” […]
