For six years Joel Salatin's Pitchfork Pulpit column in The Mother Earth News magazine inspired and challenged readers.

These columns, in the order they ran, preserve that timeless writing legacy for today's homesteading, small farming, and self-reliance community.

As America's iconic and fearless bootstrap farmsteader, Joel Salatin captures principles of practical success and philosophical wisdom in this series of essays originally published in Mother Earth News magazine.

From stewarding a woodlot to managing aromatically-appealing chickens, his dirt-under-the-fingernails experience coaches readers to self-reliant success. Untangling from industrial corporate systems dependency is a lifelong process, and one that jumpstarts with this trove of advice.
