This book is everything I enjoy in a good read, part narrative history, part business and economics, and a dash of philosophy about how we farm and feed ourselves.Bob's story captures the journey of the Organic farming movement in the US, along with fascinating insights into wheat production (a crop I'm less familiar with than others).A very enjoyable read, I recommend it as a primer on the Organic movement and why Organic and Regenerative farming is better for the earth and our diets.
Mind blowing account of a Farmer in Montana who went organic in the eighties, made ancient Kamut wheat an international succes, reintroduced veggies, berries and fruit trees to the semi arid area (no irrigation needed, while ‚water stress‘ produces an explosion of taste - how amazing. And just because he doesnt like Big Oil particularly he produces safflower oil, ‚rents it out, to cooks, takes it back once it is exhausted and fires his tractors with it. „Grain by grain“ moved my heart and makes me want to do something. Infectioos in a good way :)
Praise for Grain by GrainIf you are reading this because you are already a fan of Liz Carlisle and her character driven, in-depth analysis of American food systems and you are just browsing the reviews of Grain by Grain, I just want to say hi. If you don’t know about Liz Carlisle yet, and someone recommended this book to you, or you stumbled upon it, congratulations, you are in luck!Educated at Harvard and Berkeley, teaching now at Stanford and awarded for her research on food systems and the people engaged with them, Liz is a passionate, articulate and downright engaging voice that rises above the stream of information you have access to. Teamed up with actual farmer scientist Bob Quinn in Grain by Grain, this duo will change the way you think about grains. Depending on how much you think about grains, they may just blow your mind. Buy this book. Buy Lentil Underground too, sincerely.Blending stories of real people, in real places, with a depth of insight into the science behind growing what we eat and the regional, national and global powers that govern our food systems in a way that just about everyone else wishes they could do, Liz and Bob will grab your attention and keep it throughout. Get ready to meet some dynamic characters, to learn more about how the heartland of this country really works from people that were born and raised there and have some fun along the way. As if that is not enough, both of them are just flat out nice people on top of it all. Buy this book and get a copy for a friend.
A few years ago, my family joined about 20 other folks on a Painted Mountain corn harvest project at Bob Quinn’s farm in Big Sandy. This was my first look into Bob’s world; I had met him several times and interacted at meetings and workshops, but had never been to his acclaimed farm. Pulling up to the property that October, we noticed the neat yard and impressively tidied up garden, with grain bins in the background and the Bearpaw mountains off to the south. We found out that Bob and was off in another country, and his farm employee showed us to the corn plot, but not before guiding us through the orchard and vineyard. What a magical place!Learning that Liz Carlisle and Bob were co-authoring a book was very exciting; especially when I found out I was at the Farm Tour where the idea first came to them. The seeds of that idea were sprouted as we walked through the various Farmers’ fields, and maybe I heard them talking about it, or maybe I was too busy watching bees on the sweet clover, or looking at the nitrogen fixing nodules on lentil roots. I particularly enjoyed reading Liz's book "Lentil Underground" for all the characters I knew, and I was hoping that this book would include some of Montana’s food world’s more well-known heroes. If you are interested in food and farming science (like Michael Pollan’s) books, or similar documentaries, you’ll want to have this book in your collection.
So many news articles recently are written about third and fourth generation farmers who are about to lose their farms or are struggling and may not survive more than a few more years. I'd like to see this book available not only on Amazon and in bookstores, but also displayed at county and state fairs, especially in the south and midwest, where bankruptcies are especially acute. The authors have something special to offer these farmers -- ways to think outside the box. Bob Quinn's thoughts about diversity in growing crops, the promise that dry land farming holds as water is becoming more scarce in our country, his suggestions on how to make a farm more productive and help one's community to regenerate are just a few of the topics covered. I'm familiar with Bob's views on organic farming, but his approach to some of the problems he encountered farming and how he solved those problems was what I found most interesting. His natural curiousity about a wide variety of subjects has led him down a multitude of paths and on to new discoveries from wind farms and flour mills to biofuel and growing fruit in northern Montana. This book also addresses some of the health problems our nation is experiencing, the part our food choices have on our well-being and some solutions that are worth taking time to investigate. This book gives its readers a lot to think about.
As someone who's familiar with Bob and his work and outlook, I was concerned his optimism and enthusiasm would get lost behind the issues being addressed. This was not the case. Grain by Grain is a positive, informative and logical call to change how we perceive our food and the people who grow it. Despite not being a farmer myself, I found myself agreeing with and relating to various points throughout the book. It was an enjoyable, motivational and thought-provoking read. I would recommend it to anyone who has questions about organic or the food we eat.
I poured through this in under 48 hours !! 4 pages of notes! Great informative in such an engaging story!
