Today, in a world dominated by agribusiness, less than 1% of Americans claim farm-related occupations. What has been lost is something that Evelyn I. Funda experienced firsthand when, in 2001, her parents sold the last parcel of the farm they had worked since 1957. Against that landscape of loss, Funda explores her family's three-generation farming experience in southern Idaho.
