"So what will agriculture look like twenty-five years from now? Only time will tell. But there is good reason to believe that it may look more like the agriculture Steiner envisioned than the industrial farms featured in the majority of today’s farm magazines. In the meantime, we can hope that bold visionaries will continue to propose the notion that agriculture and spirituality belong together—that the act of envisioning an agriculture for the future is a spiritual act."
