BREAKING: Joel Salatin Appointed “Advisor to the Secretary” for USDA

November 6, 2024 —

Breaking news for the ardent followers of the modern homesteading movement was announced late on Wednesday afternoon.

Joel Salatin, the self-described “Christian libertarian environmentalist capitalist lunatic farmer” has received an appointment by congressman Thomas Massie from Kentucky to be an “Advisor to the Secretary” to the USDA, a key influence inside the agency.

“I’ve been contacted by the Trump transition team to hold some sort of position within the USDA and have accepted one of the six “Advisor to the Secretary” spots,” declared Salatin on his website.

Salatin has never been shy about his criticism of the government — specifically the USDA. He has long held strong views in allowing American citizens more control over their food and their land. Their farm, Polyface Farms, spearhead these efforts.

This announcement is a landmark shift in the way policy in America could be shaped.

For those passionate about the modern homesteading movement, this is joyous news.

Our team at Homestead Living shares in the sentiment.

Learn more about the announcement on Joel’s website.

Joel Salatin has been a contributor to our magazine at Homestead Living since our very first publication. His support of our mission and unfettered belief in this movement has made him a pioneer and inspiration to millions.
