A lesson in food
Back in the late 1970s, Stu Shafer attended an educational institution called The School of Homesteading. Today, he might as well be the headmaster of The School of Market Farming. Shafer has taken those homesteading skills and spun them into a life of tending to the land when not tending to students as a professor of sociology and sustainable agriculture at Johnson County Community College in Overland Park.
