Farm Act

Legalizing Yankee Ingenuity

November 26, 2025 Paul Spinrad, The Main Street Journal. , , ,
Did you see the movie The Martian (2015), where Matt Damon plays an astronaut stranded on Mars who constantly has to figure out how to keep surviving? In the newsletter for the CSA farm that I belong to, Terra Firma, Paul Underhill wrote that The Martian is one of the most accurate movie portrayals of what it’s like to be a farmer, even though it’s a sci-fi movie. It shows someone who constantly has to improvise, fixing things however they can with whatever they happen to have. Farmers are the original MacGyvers, he writes, “confronting daily setbacks and weather-related disasters with humor, ingenuity, and a pair of Vise-Grips.”
