Joel Salatin is a bold and unconventional American farmer, author, and speaker known for his outspoken views on food, freedom, and sustainable agriculture.
He is the Co-owner of Polyface Farm in Virginia, and he promotes regenerative, local farming practices and supplies thousands of families and businesses with pasture-raised meat.
With 16 books, a popular blog, and a global speaking career, Joel blends hands-on farming experience with sharp wit and strong cultural commentary. He's been featured in Food Inc. and The Omnivore’s Dilemma, and is a leading voice in the ecological farming movement—equally admired as a trailblazer and criticized as a provocateur.
