Rodale press lives on with a preface by Wendell Berry who we should all know. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_gw...%3Dstripbooks& field-keywords=wendell+berry+essays&sprefix=Wendell+Berr y 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. From the cover. Bill -- Garden in shade zone 5 S Jersey USA http://www.youtube.com/usnationalarchives |

Almost as painfull as Elliot Coleman! Yes, but this is not for us perhaps the next generation. I still read Gary Snyder as I only remember about 5% of any book I love. This is why I write all over them. Still I have never meet anyone who knows of Fukuoka. Such is the way it is. Bill who likes Coleman's coliniar Hoe a lot.
