About this product
Product Information
Nancy and John Hayden have spent the last quarter century transforming their livestock grazing operation into an agroecological fruit farm, nursery, and pollinator sanctuary. In Farming on the Wild Side, they discuss the philosophical and scientific principles that influenced them as they reverted their property into a biodiverse, semi-wild state, phasing out sheep and potatoes as they embraced apples, pears, stone fruits, and uncommon berry crops-not to mention innovative marketing and sales strategies. Both expert guide and inspiring narrative, this book offers new ways to manage old farms while also documenting the Haydens' unique and evolving relationship with their ecosystem and its inhabitants. It's a small-farm success story about the things each of us can do to heal the land and ourselves. Book jacket.

Reviews
"This intelligent book is written by two people who have a pure love and appreciation for the land and its inhabitants. Farming on the Wild Side serves as an authentic account of the farmers' personal transformation, a practical guide to agroecological transition, and an inspiration to live in greater harmony with nature. The farm that was created and described in detail here truly embodies the concept of a multifunctional landscape, supporting productive, ecological, and cultural functions."--Dr. Sarah Lovell, H.E. Garrett Endowed Chair Professor and director of the Center for Agroforestry, University of Missouri, "This amazing book details how Nancy and John are living the new farming paradigm, one that maximizes ecosystem functionality and values soil, biodiversity, human well-being, and long-term resiliency. Their farming journey and philosophical evolution provide practical and science-based solutions for how the backyard gardener, hobby farmer, or large-scale grower can be part of the pollinator, food, and climate solution."--Heather Holm, pollinator educator; author of Bees and Pollinators of Native Plants, "It's no secret that the way in which we feed ourselves and inhabit the land must change, but few of us truly know how to make that happen. The beauty of this book is that John and Nancy Hayden do know; even better, they've graciously shared their knowledge in these pages."--Ben Hewitt, author of The Nourishing Homestead, Publishers Weekly-- "Married couple Nancy and John Hayden bring together her degrees in biology, ecology, and creative writing and his in entomology in this remarkable biography of The Farm Between, their 18 acres in the foothills of Northern Vermont's Green Mountains . . . [They] will delight anyone interested in modern-day organic agriculture with this detailed history of one farm's progress.", "I love this book. It takes me back to a time and a place my grandparents used to talk about--a good time and place--when farmers and growers worked with nature instead of against it. Farming on the Wild Side inspires, informs, and fills me with hope that we can heal our relationship with the wild. Just reading this book is healing, and I can't wait to put some of Nancy and John Hayden's ways into practice on our own little plot of land."--Brigit Strawbridge Howard, author of Dancing with Bees, "In telling the history of a farm and its farmers, Farming on the Wild Side addresses issues of great relevance to the future of agriculture. John and Nancy Hayden remind us that an ecologically based and socially just agriculture needs to involve deep and diverse relationships between people and landscapes. The Haydens present a true example of co-evolution between the Farm Between and its stewards, documenting their use of agroecological principles to transform a conventional dairy into a diversified farm, which takes full advantage of its ecological processes. Each one of the stages of transformation--from dairy to organic vegetables to a regenerative fruit farm and nursery--offer valuable lessons to reflect on. I have been working on research and education with the Haydens for a decade, and they have generously taught me and my students how to fully integrate the science and practice dimensions of agroecology."--V. Ernesto Méndez, PhD, professor of agroecology and environmental studies, University of Vermont, "I love this book, which is an incredible and inspiring ray of hope. Farming on the Wild Side shows both experienced and aspiring farmers how to build a highly productive, biodiverse, and profitable family farm and have a fulfilling lifestyle. This is the future of farming."--André Leu, international director, Regeneration International; author of Poisoning Our Children, "We need many, many more farmers like Nancy and John Hayden, and this book will go a long way toward inspiring them. In these pages the Haydens share twenty years of wisdom, weaving together equal measures of story, philosophy, and practice about resilient and sustainable farming."--Taylor Ricketts, director, Gund Institute for Environment, University of Vermont, "This lavishly illustrated book follows the Hayden family as they bring nature back to their farm, and in the process, it tells a story of learning, testing, observing, and creating an agroecological model of how to farm with nature, not against her. They combine the science of biodiversity management, the practices of good farming, and the transformative change humans need in order to return to the kinds of food systems that will feed the land as well as feed us."--Steve Gliessman, professor emeritus of agroecology, UC Santa Cruz, "An inspiration--Farming on the Wild Side lays down an ecologically justified path for others to follow for a biodiverse farm."--Jo Ann Baumgartner, executive director, Wild Farm Alliance, "As a fellow farmer and longtime member of the organic community, the journey Nancy and John Hayden take us on with their new book resonates in my mind and carries me back through similar transitions with my own farm. While the book touches gently on many topics, I appreciate the realistic view of farming and rural life and their very real commitment to the concepts of soil health."--Jeff Moyer, executive director, Rodale Institute, "With Farming on the Wild Side, Nancy and John Hayden have delivered an inspiring story of shepherding an old, tired Vermont dairy into a new, diversified organic farm that serves the needs of the twenty-first century. It covers their journey step-by-step with new crops, new markets, and new farming methods, modeling an ecological balance that farms must achieve in the future. But the book is more than their personal experience with innovation over three decades; it's also a philosophical and practical guide to restoring land to health, which benefits the farmer, one's community, and all living things. Given the pace of climate change and the importance of regenerative agriculture as a key solution, this book is very timely!"--Will Raap, founder and chairman, Gardener's Supply, "Good farmers learn how to listen to the land. Nancy and John Hayden work with Nature to produce wholesome food for their family and community. Life doesn't get better than this. Farming on the Wild Side provides plenty of practical advice and green inspiration to up your growing game."--Michael Phillips, author of The Holistic Orchard and Mycorrhizal Planet, "Nancy and John use a forensic but accessible approach to explore their personal journey from scientists to farmers. New crops and enterprises are approached with careful planning, and their successes, or otherwise, are carefully observed to inform future decisions. Even non-farmers will enjoy reading about how they gradually adapted their farm to create a diverse farming system suited to their character and their geography. Farming on the Wild Side is a masterclass in working with nature to create abundance."--Ben Raskin, Head of Horticulture, Soil Association, "In easy, conversational prose, Nancy and John Hayden offer the aspiring regenerative farmer a compendium of wisdom on the practicalities of establishing, developing, surviving, enjoying, and profiting from the small farm without losing sight of bigger ecological and political issues. Their warts-and-all history of their own farming practice rings true and is full of inspiration for those seeking a better future while dealing with present realities--which is hopefully all of us. We need more books like this."--Chris Smaje, writer, Small Farm Future; farmer, Somerset, UK

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
