The One-Straw Revolution
Call it "Zen and the Art of Farming" or a "Little Green Book," Fukuoka's
short volume about gardening, eating, and the limits of human knowledge
is as startling today as it was 30 years ago. "...one of the founding
documents of the alternative food movement, and indispensable to anyone
hoping to understand the future of food and agriculture."
-- Michael Pollan

Mr Fukuoka understands the interconnectness of farming with other
aspects of culture, and his book is highly suggestive. He feels that
natural farming proceeds from the spiritual health of the individual.
