Description:
Rising Silo Farm Brewery presents an Author Talk with Cedric Shannon, aka "Farmer Sledge", of Weathertop Farm on Tuesday, September 1, 2026.

Feeling that the solutions to our agricultural, economic, social, political, and environmental issues just don’t quite get to the heart of the matter, more often than not, making the problems worse?

"Sh!t, Death, and Other Currencies of Nature" explores why this is so in seemingly different arenas as soil, foreign aid, carbon credits, water policies, and even in our treatment of death and waste.

Join a wide-ranging discussion of these questions and others you bring to the table. Author-Farmer-Philosopher, will read a brief section of his book, followed by audience questions, comments, and dynamic discussion.
