27 SHADES OF GREEN: The True Colors of an American Small Farmer is a must read for the consumer, foodie, and small farmers alike! Third generation organic farmer Gary Romano's experience, wisdom and humor makes this book a fascinating read blending memoirs, insight and facts about the lifestyle of the small farmer and about our food systems. Factory Farms and the conglomerate food giants are monopolizing government regulations and policy in their favor to the detriment of losing our family farms by the thousands ever year. The color shades of green represent the small farmer and Romano cleverly uses different shades of green to depict the mood and the experiences a small farmer goes through on a daily basis. Each chapter is represented by a different shade of green that sets the mood and the feeling that Romano feels as he farms his land. There are many memoirs of his childhood, and transitioning back to farming from a stable occupation with a college degree and the uncertainties that go along with it along his journey. He struggles through financial hardships and going through two divorces and yet is able to save the family farm.
