“As I got started in farming, there was a distinct lack of trustworthy, reliable, replicable information to guide me. … I resolved to do something about that.” — Paul Dorrance, author of Farming Without Losing Your Hat

“So read this book. Use it to build your own, original idea for what you can do. … And don’t buy into any silver bullet that tells you how to farm. That’s the entire adventure you’re about to embark on with Paul Dorrance on the pages ahead — you, and only you, can figure that out.” — Will Harris, founder of White Oak Pastures

If you’re looking for an honest, straightforward, no-holds-barred book about the challenges of building a successful farming business, then Farming Without Losing Your Hat is the book for you. 

Author Paul Dorrance shares from his own real-world experiences, taking a practical-only approach, focusing on the less-glamorous but essential parts of farming and ranching successfully today.

Specifically, you will learn how to:

• build a unique brand and company voice;
• grow a loyal audience to sell to;
• navigate the maze of regulations;
• walk through liabilities and tax implications;
• engage with customers on a real level;
• apply for loans and financing;
• and design a business plan from A-Z.

Additionally, space is provided at the end of each chapterfor you to write down and capture your starting vision and goals. By the time you finish the final page, this book will have transcended into an heirloom book capturing where you were when you first dreamed of the farm and how you planned to make it a reality. Keep it forever in your farm’s library, and pass it along in your family for generations to come.
