Ben Hartman shares practical how-to tips, personal stories, and examples of innovative farmers to demonstrate how small, hyperlocal farms can be both ecologically and economically superior to industrial-scale operations. In The Lean Micro Farm, Hartman details his journey to downsize his farm from one acre to a third of an acre to prioritize family and community without sacrificing income. He profiles six innovative farmers who embody the "get small" mindset, showcasing a gentler, more ecological approach to farming that reduces waste and resource use.

Hartman emphasizes the need for a new kind of farming that nourishes communities and centers on human joy.
