Joel Salatin is a great man and leader. He’s a blessing to our country. May God bless him and keep him.
My dad was a pastor and he loved that book! He even talked about it in some of his sermons. 😊 He's in heaven now and it wouldn't surprise me if he has cows.
Jesus, please protect this man and his family with your protection and mercy Lord. In Jesus name, amen.
What a beautiful heritage! Thank you for honoring your father and grandfather!
This interview was a blessing. Standing back and just letting him talk was also a blessing because for some that would be so hard, not putting your two cents in every few minutes. It was a vision of gaining wisdom.
He's still very happy mentally & physically healthy at his age. Something we all need to learn
I’ve heard quite a few Joel Salatin interviews. This was a wonderful recounting of his family’s experience in Venezuela and the fulfillment of the farming dream of his father. Joel is naturally engaging and a great storyteller. Kudos to the interviewer for just letting him have the floor.
This guy's presence is so warm and welcoming! Super enjoyable to be around!
Refreshing and wonderful to see. Thank you Joel for sharing a special part of yourself with us. May God bless you and your family!
Thank You Lord for this great man! How encouraging to hear from someone so grounded. May God continue to bless you and your endeavors Joel. I have started farming at 50 … 5 yrs ago. I live on a literal gravel pit and am slowly growing soil with chickens and goats. 😅
Don't give a God credit for your hard work

'Does the human being not see that we created him from a tiny drop,
then he turns into an ardent enemy?
He raises a question to us-
while forgetting his initial creation
-"Who can resurrect the bones after they had rotted?"
Say, "The One who initiated them in the first place will resurrect them.
He is fully aware of every creation."
He is the One who creates for you,
from the green trees,
fuel which you burn for light.
Is not the One who created the heavens and the earth able to recreate the same?
Yes indeed;
He is the Creator, the Omniscient.
All He needs to do to carry out any command is say to it,
"Be," and it is.
Therefore, glory be to the One in whose hand is the sovereignty over all things,
and to Him you will be returned."
Glorious Qur'an 36:77-83 0:32

Glad to hear you don't want to be a politican. You've taught people well on homesteading, farming, or just growing. Thank you Joel!
Peace. I no doubt was recommended to watch this video because I devour anything on YT with Joel. I really enjoyed and appreciate the way this interviewer allowed him to speak and develop his thoughts without interruption. I look forward to more from this interviewer as she is very talented at asking the right questions but mostly giving the space for elaboration of thought.
I don’t understand why the churches won’t embrace your book! Can you explain that?
You are exactly what Christians need. Loving God and loving his creation!❤
For blipslone Joel was blessed to have parents who taught work ethics as well as reverence for the power to stay on task - God - who gave him intellect and physical strength to accomplish these goals. He not only serves God with his effort but his skill to investigate problems and solutions that have made this wealth. Follow Him and him.
Great Man, Great Vision, Great Wisdom! Listen America, it’s never too late!
Look how solid & healthy that man is. You are what you eat
Very blessed to have a father and a mother with convictions to do the right thing according to God's design. God Bless you!
according to God's design? What are you talking about?
@@bipslone8880 Just open your eyes, ears and heart and you may see it too!
So much gold in this man's words!
A lot of BS as well but no one is perfect
Yes lots of experience his got,,,I am a child of God ! I lost my Father at 10 years old so when you do it yourself you learn lot more and you can teach others as well and get appreciation of God's life. I am 40 now and feel that there is so much more to live God have for us but like he said we have to be part of it. It takes action with our children! I am wrestling with this because I am the change! I will be change and I will leave a better place for my children ,, Thank you for your teaching I will share with my family and friends....
Love this guy's way of living. Honest and a great role model for everyone.
This is one of the best interviews I've seen, Thanks for the no nonsense honesty. God Bless!
I am connecting from Kigali-Rwanda Eastern Africa, I am a great admirer of your work..impressive stuff @ Joel salatin
This was a great interview. Thank you for taking your time to share with us.
Mr. Saladin, as usual you hit the nail on the head with every word.
I personally am in shock that even my Christian friends don’t have a clue where and when they are living. The prophecies are jumping off the pages of the Bible and coming to life and they are focused on who will be on the ballot in November. I have never not voted in any election and if there is an election in November and I am still on the planet, I will vote. But I am not really expecting either of those things to be the reality.
Russia, China and Iran are already working together against Israel. If America was still functioning, we would be fighting against them Ezekiel does not mention us. So that pretty much lets me know the near future for America. I only watch the news online each night to see if Isaiah 17 is happening yet.
Sadly my friends believe that Trump will save America. I admire Donald Trump and if we have an election, and I am still living here, I will vote for him. I still believe that he has an important roll to play in earth’s near future. But my friends can not see his one fatal flaw that is going to make him vulnerable to a terrible future situation. His ego will open him up to great evil. He believes that he can make the world better and safe. I think that he will do that. I think that he save the world from the power hungry globalists He will become the beloved world leader that he was born to be. He will make things seem better… For at least 3 1/2 years. But after that… not better, not so safe. Like Judas, he was born for this time and for this roll. Not his fault.
We as a country definitely are in deep. Appreciate the clarity and use of plain language regarding current affairs as well as the encouragement in respect to the best way to respond. We needed to hear it. Better if it comes from someone who is setting the example.
Great conversation; thanks for sharing! Blessings 🤗🇨🇦
What a blessing this video is. Thank you Lord.
Thank you for this amazing video and testimony, just all around. It was just done very well, and I pray that it would continue to multiply, and reach even more! Love and respect!
He’s a gem
💚 Fabulous Joel Salatin! 💚
Wow gift from God.😅
Ain't no stopping the permaculture train
As a US immigrant to Venezuela, who has been a sustainable organic polyculture farmer here for 20 years, I find it funny to hear Joel's story about his third world beginnings. He's right. His father was ahead of his time. But his father bought 1000Acrs with money earned from his job at a US Oil Giant. So... I doubt his relationship to the la d was that of a back to the lander, much less his relationship to the locals one of a humble immigrant looking to assimilate and put down new roots. It's important to put things in perspective. And due to his and his parents traumatic ousting, I'm not sure Joel is capable of that. But I'll take the story as an example of how not to raise chickens in Venezuela, as I grow my own free range operation under dense agroforrestry of fruit trees, cocoa, and coffee.
Ty for this vid:] So many in my life like to tell me how to live yet they are not ready embrace my style of living. Glad to hear that standing strong and not conforming unless it makes sense to you is the right way. I have a long way to go but enjoying the journey:] Proof is in the pudding what are you pudding forth hehe
Cheers mate ❤
Love this interview!
Very inspiring
Beautiful interview!
Indeed sir, the great lie, are the ones we tell ourselves.
ThankQ Joel
From 🇷🇺 with ❤!
I have mixed feelings hearing that most our farms will change hands in the next 15 years, it'll be rough for our country, but selfishly its exciting cause ive been looking at land for years and it doesnt look very good right now for us young kids just getting started.
God help us eventually own something for ourselves 🙏
I do drink sometimes, but I bet I would have loved your mom. I never joined pep club, didn't want to take Home Ed. I told the principal that when I wanted to learn to sew, I would have my grandmother teach me because she could sew without a pattern and do a better job that the teacher. I got detention for wearing a pant suit to high school instead of a mini skirt. I love that area outside the box! Joel, check out World Outreach Church in Murfreesboro, TN.
Just out of curiosity- why should he check out WO Church?
A good man and a wonderful example but I believe it's possible to live a moral and upright life without bringing God into it. I believe in people's right to choose what they want to believe. "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you". Or "The object of life is to be happy, provided that happiness is not at the expense of others." Humanitarian morals and treading lightly on the earth should be taught from an early age. Yes, there are things beyond our understanding, but faith is a personal choice and cannot be forced on another. Peace and happiness to all.
For the single fact he’s saying he “can’t” run for office is the exact reason he should.
The establishment politicians that run for the money and lifelong plan is the problem.
We need men with Christian convictions that will put our nation back on the path it was founded on.
Christian convictions? What does that mean?
Standing for biblical morals and beliefs.
I agree in principle, but Joel said it himself. He cannot work on committees and do "politics". His personality does not allow it and the results would be hence. But his heart is absolutely in the right place. Go look at Nick Freitas. Now there is a man that could. (He also is not keen on the job) They actually know each other. 😊
How do you go from walking away from everything to buying 350 acres in northern va?
I purchased my 40A in 1974 for 150.00 per Acre
It may be in one of his
books that he addresses that; his Dad had reached out to the government to try and help him get money back from the loss of his farm. He was able to eventually get some funds back and that went into the farm- ‘cheapest land’ as he mentioned here.
And there it is, I have never heard salatin speak of God before. It's too consistent folks. Follow the pattern in your life. Who are the best men or women you know? Why? You will know them by their fruits.
“I just don’t have the petsonality for politics” code for, I don’t desire to be a bold face liar! 😅
The American dream is now a nightmare. Joel grew up and built his business in a different erra. You gotta start out a multimillionaire nowdays to start and keep a farm
Not true...
@leifkemp have you recently (in the past 5 years) started a farm from nothing without having another income source?
@@redrustyhill2 Yup...Grow2ZeroFARMS
@@redrustyhill2did he start his farm without another income source or just grow into the ability to farm without an income source?
@MFaith777 Joel started out with 600 acres his dad had. He did work an outside job when he started, for a couple years, but he didn't start from nothing, he started with 600 acres that was already paid for.
Too bad this was all political and no information
He who has eyes to see and ears to hear, let him see and hear. You have neither. Above, someone asked, how do you walk away from everything in Venezuela, and end up buying acreage in Virginia? Joel spoke about using barter to get improvements made on his Virginia land. He is talking about how his grandfather and father lived below their means in order to gather up the money to buy land. Barter is a an excellent way to do business that is just between individuals and leaves the greedy politicians out of the deal! Very very soon, if you don’t know how to barter, you will have to sell your very soul for a bite of food. And the concept of living below your means is not political, but it is an age old answer to gaining true wealth. Unfortunately we now have politicians who are making the most basic things like food, water and a simple roof over our heads become so expensive that no ordinary citizens will be able to afford to even survive without bending the knee and taking the mark. So maybe you should consider replaying the video. Especially if you have any interest in living life on your own terms or the people you love being able to do that. Because we are all standing on a razor’s edge of losing the freedom to make any decisions or choices ourselves. We are facing a future of slavery and slaughter. I am serious! So clear your eyes and ears. The principles he is teaching are the same principles that will be life saving within the next few years.
