Testimonials

Joel Salatin is a global superstar in the homesteading and regenerative agriculture movement and the farmsteading business industry

Joel’s family took over 550-acres of worn-out, eroded, and abused farmland in Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley in 1961 and turned it into a food-producing paradise by ditching modern agricultural practices and returning to regenerative, natural, organic, and sustainable methods.

It’s known today as Polyface Farms. 

Joel has become an icon for sustainable and local food production and regenerative agriculture. 

Joel was prominently featured in Michael Pollan’s landmark bestseller The Omnivore’s Dilemma.

He had a starring role in the Oscar-nominated 2008 documentary Food, Inc. The Guardian even called him “America’s most celebrated pioneer of chemical-free farming.”

He’s a sought-after speaker, inspiring audiences from millionaire CEOs to rural farmers and everyone in between across America and the world.

He’s also written over a dozen outstanding books.

In his book, You Can Farm: The Entrepreneur’s Guide to Start & $ucceed in a Farming Enterprise, calls for a new generation of small-scale farmers to take up their pitchforks and feed their communities rather than relying on Big Ag corporate monstrosities and Big Government bureaucratic control. 

Now you have a once-in-a-lifetime chance to sit at the feet of a legend and soak up the wisdom he’s gained over the past 4+ decades of leading the fight for a better food system and a healthier world

Joel gave the keynote address virtually at Land Summit 1 in 2021 and in person at Land Summit 2 in 2022 and then again at Land Summit 4 in 2024.

He’s consistently shared secrets of his trade, generously teaching those attending how to set up their farm and homestead for maximum food production and productivity, and how to scale it up to become a wealth-generating business that serves their community. 

But...

There’s always been something missing when Joel has spoken…

You never get to see or experience what he’s talking about IN ACTION.

There’s nothing more powerful for homesteaders and farmers than to walk onto the property of a master of regenerative agriculture and experience his methods in action…

See the chickens being moved around…

Smell the sweet scent of the grass in the wind…

Hear the cows moo in the sun…

All while watching and participating with Joel Salatin as he demonstrates how anyone can develop a thriving homestead and farm business.

Imagine getting to taste the results of Joel’s methods as you share a meal with him and others that share his philosophy and literally chew over how you can bring his wisdom back home to change your life and land forever.

You deserve that experience.

It’s an opportunity that many have wanted for years.

Joel is almost 69 years young. He’s thriving in his golden years. But he’s not going to do this stuff forever. 

Which is what makes this opportunity that much more significant. 

Your chance to get face-to-face with Joel…

Learn his secrets…

And experience the beauty and majesty of Polyface Farms up close and personal is finally here.

In just two days, Joel and the other masters will hand you their hard-earned secrets on a silver platter across 3 core areas:

1) How to explode food production (plants, trees, and animals) for year-round, off-grid self-sufficiency

Your land has everything in it to make your dream of living free and self-sufficiently a reality once you understand how to unlock its potential.

You’ll be shown how to nurture your land to produce a bountiful and diverse "forest" of food everywhere you look, from grass to plants to trees, without fertilizers, chemicals, or soil-destroying modern methods. 

You’ll be given a blueprint for sustainably and ethically raising and slaughtering healthy animals without antibiotics and vaccines. 

And you’ll see for yourself how to use permaculture and regenerative agriculture to steward the land with care without causing harm (the way industrial farms do). 

2) How to earn 5, 6, or 7-figures per year from profitable businesses and simple revenue streams developed on your property

Once your land has been optimized for production, it can be leveraged for financial abundance. 

You’ll be shown how to turn the food you produce into a sustainable and profitable business by either selling it directly to consumers or to local businesses (restaurants, hotels, schools, and more). 

You’ll be given hard-earned entrepreneurial insights and advice for operating a lean business with minimal expenses while growing your profit margins, including when and how to bring on help as you scale. 

And you’ll see first-hand how Joel has steadily grown an unbreakable local farm business that generates tens of thousands of dollars every month, year after year.  

3) How to positively impact your local community and inspire future generations with an enduring legacy

More than just financial and material abundance, your land provides an opportunity to empower your local community and inspire future generations.

You’ll be shown how to become a leader in your area who champions real food, better agriculture, and freedom. 

You’ll be given strategies and tactics for leveraging your story to grow your influence and impact. 

And you’ll see how to deliberately develop and use your legacy to shape a better world right where you are.

While past Land Summits have focused more on talks and presentations…

Land Summit 5 at Polyface Farms will focus 80% of your time on developing actionable, practical skills you can take home to transform your land (and life)
