About this title

From the Author

Thank you for considering This Farm's Life Coloring Book! I'm excited to share this book and its message with you. As an experienced organic farmer, ecological landscaper, writer, artist, and lover of nature I am always looking for new ways to help folks connect with the land.  As a dad to two beautiful children and a happily married husband of an artist, colorist, my family and I felt there has been something missing with the coloring book trend.  We feel that this type of book could be a great way for families to enjoy the calming nature of coloring while also learning about organic farming practices. Many of the themes of the book stem from best practices in sustainable agriculture and organic farming. We really hope you enjoy these coloring pages, the poems and learn something from the experience at the same time. From our family to yours, thank you so much for reading this message and checking out our book!
