Year after year, farmers here in the Southeast and around the country confront adversities and uncertainties - the weather and the economy are just a few.
Why do some small and mid-size farmers choose to stick with their business and care for their land?Brooks Lamb talked to a few farmers here in Tennessee about that.
He is the author of “Love for the Land: Lessons from Farmers Who Persist in Place.”
On Thursday, starting at 4 PM, he will appear at The Book & Cover here in Chattanooga.
