Growing a Farmer Pt.2
Overall this book was a pretty interesting read. Even though I do not see my future to have anything to do with agriculture, I still see the relevant of our daily life with a small town farm. Timmermestier continued to include all his past experience as examples of different challenges he had failed, learned and overcame. He stumble into the life of a farmer and slowly grows into a full-time, professional farmer. I particularly liked the fowl chapter. I grew up in Taiwan, and there are always lots of chicken around, so I am pretty familiar with the animal. However, this chapter continue to surprises me with different facts of a chicken. For example, the social ranking of different batches of chickens will cause them to peak each other to death was pretty interesting. I didn't know that chickens would shut down after sundown and become absolutely incoherent with its environment.
