Roger Allbee has a deep-rooted connection to Vermont’s agricultural history. Growing up on a hilltop farm in a rural town, Roger witnessed the strength and persistence of his family, who has farmed the land since 1794. Turning the Soil explores great turning points in agricultural history, encountering the stories of farmers and their families, agricultural leaders, and various figures who shaped Vermont’s farming culture. Changes in both the industry and land use have been inevitable and constant; Turning the Soil delves into the challenges that have shaped this changing landscape, from the settlement of the West to the advent of modern transportation and refrigeration. These changes continue to impact the economic sustainability of farmers today, lending relevance to the current agricultural landscape. Includes photos and historical maps.
