The Disappearing American Farmer: Saving Our Family Farms & Food

April 26 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm

Join author and Driftless Area farm boy Brian Reisinger for a discussion of his book on the economic and cultural crisis that is threatening our very food supply. Land Rich, Cash Poor is the critically acclaimed untold history of the disappearing American farmer that has started a national conversation about our food, economic security, environment, health, and more. Called “an anthem to the family farm in America” by the AP Book Review, Land Rich, Cash Poor weaves the hidden history driving this crisis with the author’s own family’s four-generation fight for survival on their Wisconsin farm. Reisinger reveals the truth about the challenges facing family farms in Wisconsin and across the country—and how to chart a brighter future.
