Berry is a conservationist, farmer, essayist, novelist and poet. He is the author of over forty books including "The Unsettling of America: Culture & Agriculture," and the well-known "Port William" series. The master of many genres, Berry's focus on farming, community, and agricultural and ecological thinking has remained a constant throughout his work. He has farmed a hillside in his native Henry County, KY, for more than forty years.
