A Year and a Day on Just a Few Acres

Peter Larson

About this book

When Peter Larson, a 44 year old principal at an architectural firm decides to leave his job to restart his family's seventh generation farm near Ithaca, New York, he encounters doubting ghosts of his former self, hundreds of frankenchickens, fifty personable turkeys, three pigs, one enduring friendship, and the true self he has searched for his whole life. Filled with the psychology of change and down to earth stories of farming and homesteading, this is the true story of making the leap so many wish for but dare not.
