520 2  "An intimate, gorgeously observed memoir about family and 
       farming that forms a powerful lesson in the hard-earned 
       risks that make life worth living. The summer he was 
       thirty-one, Arlo Crawford returned home for the summer 
       harvest at New Morning Farm--seventy-five acres tucked in 
       a hollow in south-central Pennsylvania where his parents 
       had been growing organic vegetables for almost forty 
       years. Like many summers before, Arlo returned to the 
       family farm's familiar rhythms--rise, eat, bend, pick, 
       sort, sweat, sleep. But this time he was also there to 
       change his direction, like his father years ago. In the 
       1970s, well before the explosion of the farm-to-table and 
       slow food movement, Arlo's father, Jim, left behind law 
       school and Vietnam, and decided to give farming a try. 
       Arlo's return also prompts a re-examination of a past 
       tragedy: the murder of a neighboring farmer twenty years 
       before. A chronicle of one full season on a farm, with all
       its small triumphs and inevitable setbacks, A Farm Dies 
       Once a Year is a mediation on work--the true nature of it,
       and on taking pride in it--and a son's reckoning with a 
       father's legacy. Above all, it is a striking portrait of 
       how one man builds, sows, and harvests his way into a new 
       understanding of the risks necessary to a life well-lived"
