Host and American Family Farmer Doug Stephan www.eastleighfarm.com begins with news about the State of The Union Address and references to farmers and ranchers. Next, we meet Tony Weber, who, along with his wife Michelle, own and operate a small, successful farm, Weber Ranch. www.weberranchllc.com They have no secrets, you can visit them anytime. They let animals live like animals. “Pigs need to express their pigness.” Cows and sheep eat grass, chickens thrive on pasture, and pigs desperately need to root. So, they let them. Their animals move daily from paddock to paddock, building and fertilizing the soil, leaving valuable waste behind, avoiding disease, and calmly flourishes. Because of this way of life, there is no need for antibiotics or hormones. Finally, Doug opines that farmers and ranchers need to put more emphasis on investing in their land.
