🌱 Big News in the World of Food and Farming! 🌱
Regardless of where you stand politically, this is something that might interest everyone who cares about food quality, farming, and the future of our health! 🌾
Regenerative farming legend Joel Salatin has announced he's been invited by the Trump transition team to join the USDA as an “Advisor to the Secretary.” If you’re not familiar with him, here’s a quick intro:
Joel Salatin describes himself as a “Christian libertarian environmentalist capitalist lunatic farmer.” 👨🌾 He’s a fierce advocate for regenerative agriculture and has been shaking up the farming world for decades. Known for his family-run, sustainable farm and unique viewpoints, he’s been called everything from “the most famous farmer in the world” and “the high priest of the pasture” to a “bio-terrorist” by those who oppose his methods. Love him or not, Salatin is a major voice in sustainable food production and environmentalism!
With 15 books under his belt, a thriving multi-generational family farm, and years of experience advocating for regenerative, organic farming, Salatin is comfortable working with both cattle and CEOs. 🐄📈
Now, with RFK Jr. focusing on food quality and chronic disease issues and Elon Musk and Ron Paul speaking out on government efficiency, this administration could bring major changes. Could this team drive real shifts in food policy and chronic disease prevention? Only time will tell, but this could be a fascinating chapter for those who care about the future of our health and environment! 🌎
Let us know what you think – is this a turning point for food quality and health policies in America?

Some history regarding Joel Salatin and the USDA...
🚨 Joel Salatin Joins the USDA: A New Era for Food Freedom? 🚨
Joel Salatin, the trailblazing regenerative farmer known for his fierce opposition to industrial farming practices, is now stepping into an advisory role at the very agency he's spent decades challenging: the USDA. 🌱 If you’ve followed Salatin, you know he’s been a vocal critic of USDA regulations that he believes crush small farms and push an industrialized model that prioritizes mass production over sustainable, healthy food.
For years, Salatin has clashed with USDA standards that label some of his nature-focused practices as unsafe or even “bio-terrorist.” 🐄 Why? Because he lets his animals graze freely—a move the USDA claims risks disease spread through wildlife interactions. Salatin argues that his pasture-based methods are healthier, both for the animals and for the environment, but the USDA has historically enforced strict rules that favor factory farming over these innovative practices.
Salatin’s opposition to USDA policy goes beyond just the practical; it’s about food freedom. He argues that USDA regulations enforce conformity to large-scale, industrial models, making it nearly impossible for small, sustainable farms to thrive. In his book "Everything I Want to Do Is Illegal," he outlines how many sustainable methods, like processing chickens on-site, are banned or heavily restricted, cutting off local producers and boosting factory farms. 🐔🌾
Now, in a plot twist no one saw coming, Salatin will bring his voice to the USDA’s advisory board. This is HUGE! With someone who has tirelessly advocated for food freedom and sustainable practices now in a position to influence policy, we could see significant changes ahead. Imagine regulations that actually support small farms, promote local food, and dismantle barriers for regenerative farming. Salatin’s dream of environmental stewardship and food sovereignty might be closer than ever.
What do you think—will Salatin be able to shift the USDA's stance on sustainable farming? Let us know your thoughts on this historic move!
🚨 This will blow your mind! 🚨 Listen up to what Joel Salatin has to say about how backyard chickens could shake up the entire egg industry – and potentially make it obsolete. In this clip from his conversation with Joe Rogan, Salatin breaks down the power of local food systems and what a simple change could do. Just look at the example he shared:
A city in Belgium launched a unique initiative, offering three free chickens per household to any family interested. Over 2,000 households took up the offer – that’s 6,000 chickens in one city! 🐔 The results? The city reduced food waste going to landfills by a massive 100 TONS in the very first month. Plus, these families suddenly had their own fresh eggs at home, without needing to buy from the store.
Imagine this on a larger scale – Salatin suggests that if just 1 in 3 households in the U.S. had enough chickens to handle kitchen scraps, the egg industry could become completely unnecessary! That’s the revolutionary impact of rethinking food systems and decentralizing food production. 💥
If you’re curious about regenerative farming, organic food systems, and making small choices with big impacts, Joel Salatin is your guy. He’s written over 15 books and done countless interviews, including with Joe Rogan. Just search ‘Joel Salatin’ on YouTube to dive deeper into his powerful ideas on holistic health, sustainable farming, and community-driven food solutions.
What do you think? Could this backyard chicken movement really change things? 🐓🥚
