Mark and Ann Marie Wertin raise their seven children in an idyllic setting--on a farm with cows, pigs, goats, rabbits, ducks, chickens, and horses. They garden, and raise almost all of their own food. Ann also has an M.A., and they homeschool. Their kids are wonderfully happy and social.
How did they come to lead this ideal life? In this episode, Mark covers what their family believes a true education is, and how they achieve it. Next week, in Part II, we get into how to get started on this astonishing lifestyle that many people crave.
