Article I read is "The Family as a Unit of Production" from The Annals of America Volume 15, page 229. This article covers Ralph Borsodi's flight from the city to implement a Seven Acre "Experiment" in self sufficiency. This "experimental" return to an Agrarian lifestyle became a movement that off-set the negative effects of the Great Depression for many families. -the Shepherdess

About this Channel: This channel chronicles my journey as a sheep farmer from the very beginning. My primary occupation is in business management. In 2020, I discovered the principles of regenerative agriculture and embarked on a journey with the end goal of building a profitable small farm on 23 acres by 2027. Thank you for joining the journey!
