About the Author: Forrest Pritchard

You enjoy fine reactions from the recent Arlington Central Library gathering and so glad your new book is doubling the impact of your first book. What a fortuitous path you have created upon genes, family, geology, literature, and farming! Congratulations!
Hi, Forrest –
Congratulations on yet another very positive review. The book fully deserves such praise.
Unfortunately, clicking on your link to the article yields only the first few lines of the story … followed by a request for WSJ subscribers to log-in if they want to read the whole enchilada. We don’t have a paid WSJ subscription, and we suspect many of your followers don’t either.
However, based on prior experience, we have found that by Googling the right words, the search will easily identify a link to the full story. In this case, the words would be “Meet Your Farmer WSJ”
Just saying’ …
All the best,
Jeff & Susan

Gotcha, sorry about that! The link worked for me (showed entire review), not sure why it’s acting that way…
I just finished Gaining Ground and thought it was very interesting and will read your new book, as well. I do have a follow up question to the first book. As far as I can see from your website you now have several sources of income: meat products (the original intention), food products, the b and b and now publishings. About what percentage does each contribute toward your total? Would just the meat products have provided enough to be self-supporting? Congratulations on figuring out how to live the way you want.
Thanks for asking, and for checking out my new book… Hope you love it! Meat remains my primary income, 99%. I wish publishing contributed more, ha! The kitchen/food products is Nancy’s business, and the b&b has always basically broken even. I’m at work on a 3rd book about the story behind the house. A reason for everything, to be sure 🙂
