Growing on just one and a half acres, owners Jean-Martin and Maude-Helène feed more than 200 families through their thriving CSA and seasonal market stands and supply their signature mesclun salad mix to dozens of local establishments. The secret of their success is the low-tech, high-yield production methods they've developed by focusing on growing better rather than growing bigger, making their operation more lucrative and viable in the process.

Have you ever desired, deep within your soul, to make a comfortable full-time living from a farming enterprise? Too often people dare not even vocalize this desire because it seems absurd. It's like thinking the unthinkable. After all, the farm population is dwindling. It takes too much capital to start. The pay is too low. The working conditions are dusty, smelly and noisy: Not the place to raise a family. This is all true, and more, for most farmers.

By explaining the lean system for identifying and eliminating waste and introducing efficiency in every aspect of the farm operation, The Lean Farm makes the case that small-scale farming can be an attractive career option for young people who are interested in growing food for their community. Working smarter, not harder, also prevents the kind of burnout that start-up farmers often encounter in the face of long, hard, backbreaking labor. Lean principles grew out of the Japanese automotive industry, but they are now being followed by progressive farms around the world....

Fossil fuels and livestock grazing are often targeted as major culprits behind climate change and desertification. But Allan Savory, cofounder of the Savory Institute, begs to differ. The bigger problem, he warns, is our mismanagement of resources. Livestock grazing is not the problem; it's how we graze livestock. If we don't change the way we approach land management, irreparable harm from climate change could continue long after we replace fossil fuels.

Description
There are 20 million acres of lawns in North America. In their current form, these unproductive expanses of grass represent a significant financial and environmental cost. However, viewed through a different lens, they can also be seen as a tremendous source of opportunity. Access to land is a major barrier for many people who want to enter the agricultural sector, and urban and suburban yards have huge potential for would-be farmers wanting to become part of this growing movement.
The Urban Farmer is a comprehensive, hands-on, practical manual to help you learn the techniques and business strategies you need to make a good living growing high-yield, high-value crops right in your own backyard (or someone else's). Major benefits include:
- Low capital investment and overhead costs
Reduced need for expensive infrastructure
Easy access to markets
Growing food in the city means that fresh crops may travel only a few blocks from field to table, making this innovative approach the next logical step in the local food movement. Based on a scalable, easily reproduced business model, The Urban Farmer is your complete guide to minimizing risk and maximizing profit by using intensive production in small leased or borrowed spaces.
Curtis Stone is the owner/operator of Green City Acres, a commercial urban farm growing vegetables for farmers markets, restaurants, and retail outlets. During his slower months, Curtis works as a public speaker, teacher, and consultant, sharing his story to inspire a new generation of farmers.

Great book to learn about urban farming
Loved the story, but the narrator was monotonous. I highly recommend this book to anyone who would like to learn more about farming in general. The information that Curtis shares is extremely detailed, and will save you hours of trial and error.

Narrator Almost Ruins Amazing Content
I love Curtis Stone’s YouTube channel. He’s an excellent speaker which is why I’m so disappointed he didn’t narrate this book himself. The chosen narrator is so bad ...I hope I can make it through what I’m certain is excellent content. At three chapters in I literally have to stop every so often to get a rest from the monotonous dirge that is this narrator’s style. The first inflection came in chapter THREE! I had to stop and celebrate!
A narrator is important in helping communicate the authors meaning, excitement and passion... all of which is missing here. This review should be about the great content in Curtis’s book. Instead it’s a bit of a rant about the nearly robotic voice in charge of disseminating these great ideas and plowing then under in the process... yes, a gardening reference. It makes you work way too hard. While I adore audio books and listen while I drive... I think I’d have to recommend getting this book and reading it yourself...

Great content - Horrible Narrator
I will be avoiding this narrator in the future. It was hard to concentrate with the inflection patterns at the end of each sentence. Like a monotone Vespa.
Great content, though! Very informative.

if the empire ever shifts their "pandemic" control operation into another form of tyranny that allows for restaurants and farmers markets to return to reality then maybe the usefulness of this book will be reestablished.
