Stock-Free Farms in USA
editOne of the most consistent stock-free farms that I ever visited was the Khadighar Vegan Organic Farm in Industry, Maine, which did exactly what this article describes. Will Bonsall and Molly Thorkildsen were active members of the Seed Savers exchange (I seem to recall that they were preserving 'native potatoes' (we often hear of heirloom tomatoes, but they were preserving heirloom potatoes, I seem to recall). They also made a very earnest effort to not use fuel-driven plowing equipment, but they did have a gas-powered tractor which they sought to use minimally, and they did 'fire up' a vehicle to drive into the nearby town (rarely).

Article move
editNote: Regarding this and this edit by LL221W, the sources use the term stock-free agriculture, and stock-free agriculture is the WP:Common name. It is not an incorrect term for this topic. When moving articles like this, WP:Common name should always be considered, and it is better to go through the WP:Requested moves process. Any alternative title can go in the WP:Lead, per WP:Alternative title. Flyer22 (talk) 08:49, 24 August 2015 (UTC)
Veganic agriculture
editMerely animal-free agriculture is not the same as truly 'veganic agriculture' because the goals of 'veganic agriculture' would be farming without violence to theland animals, wildlife, insects, etc. (as Will Tuttle outlines in his book, Food for Freedom: Reclaiming Our Health and Rescuing Our World (authored in 2023 by Will Tuttle, PhD), which explores the underlying cultural food narratives in our society, and how they have eroded our freedom, health, spirituality, and awareness. [1][2] Dr. Will Tuttle and his wife practice 'veganic organic agriculture' in California, as Will Bonsall and his wife practice it in Industry, Maine. Dr. Tuttle discusses the/his 'veganic organic agriculture' philosophy at [3] "Food for Freedom" has achieved significant success, becoming a #1 best-seller on Amazon in the Vegan Book category and reaching #4 in Social Philosophy.
