One 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).
