- Jennifer and Rodney Barrett were once chicken farmers and cattle ranchers. Now they're in the process of converting their barns to grow mushrooms. Watch their touching story to see what prompted the switch.
"Anybody that would buy into any part of the animal protein business right now, I think would be plum foolish." Rowdy Girl Sanctuary started the Rancher Advocacy Program to help farmers like the Barrett family transition out of raising animals for food and into growing mushrooms"

Jennifer e Rodney Barrett já foram criadores de gado e aves. Agora, estão transformando seus celeiros para um cultivo de cogumelos. Assista a essa tocante história para ver como foi o despertar dessa família.
"Qualquer pessoa que entrasse em qualquer vertente da agropecuária agora seria extremamente insensato, na minha opinião." O Santuário Rowdy Girl começou o Programa de Desenvolvimento de Fazendeiros para ajudar pessoas a transicionar seu negócio, de criação de animais considerados de consumo para um cultivo de cogumelos, como a família Barrett.

What an incredible story!
Agreed!
Wow these people are amazing. I hope more follow their example!
They have such big hearts. I think we'll be seeing a lot more of this!
I love seeing this happen.
We do too!
watching this right now and i love it
This is AWESOME! Thank You!
We need lot more such Animal Farmers.
💚👍🏻✌🏻
Yes we do!
So glad they changed and now there eyes are open. Makes me happy to see others change. It makes me hopeful for the future.
People go through life with their eyes open and their minds shut tight. The ones that open their minds, finally see what their eyes have been seeing. These people become vegans, and I love every single one of them for it. I wish this couple a happy enlightened future. They can be at peace with themselves now. 💖💚🌱🌍
So people who eat meat have their minds shut? Gtfo..
Beautiful people, beautiful story. Heartbreaking and so inspiring. Sharing this story with everyone I know. Love you guys & sending you so much love.
At the rate I eat mushrooms we need more mushroom farmers. Hats off to them.
Haha! Amen!
These people are legends even though I don't eat mushrooms it's better than munching on a corpse.
They deserve a star on the walk of fame!
No it isn't better than munching in a corpse. You can try to make it sound gross by saying "corpse" but eating flesh Is just as natural as eating fungi.
What a beautiful story! I look so forward to see this happening all around the country, and all around the planet. Many people think vegans are anti-farmer, and it simply is not true. We all rely on farmers, vegan or not!
Best of luck to you!
Bravo to Jennifer and Rodney! This gives me hope when former chicken farmers and cattle ranchers can open their eyes and hearts and make such a positive change in their lives. I salute you!!
Love you guys, thank you for sharing this.
I wish them all the best for making such an impactful change. Thank you. Hope you inspire other dairy and poultry farmers.
Such extraordinary human beings!
Bless you guys. Thank you its encouraging.
This is definitely what farmers need! It makes me so happy to see this!
Wow this video needs more views.
I wish them great success in their new venture.
SO glad you are getting help to transition. Thank you for what u do!!
THANK YOU!! I will choose your mushrooms all day!!!
This is so awesome. Well done and thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Congratulations! This must have been such a difficult financial decision to make.....ethical, fantastic! But financially.... difficult. Well done and it’s wonderful that you have been able to link into the advocacy program to make this happen. Wishing you the very best for your future and your families future.
Such a great story! I love hearing about farm transitions like this.
This needs to go VIRAL. We need to go in a different direction at this time.
Love eating mushrooms - Love NOT eating chickens :)
💚👍🏻✌🏻

Grew up on a small chicken farm in MD that my parents shut down in the 80’s. I turned vegan in 1979 at age 8 …it was straight up Silence Of The Lambs when catch crews came in. Traumatic af! Chicken barns have been used for storage and workshop space ever since. I have one left on the property and found this video in a search for ideas on converting the old barn into a greenhouse.
This is phenomenal. Is there any way we can easily find the Barrett mushrooms? Are they selling yet? I want to be a customer!
Birdman Vegan Future APPROVES
Mushrooms can dissolve tumors and heal immune system. (Lions Mane etc). Love these ranchers. Thank you.
OMG...the chicken collecting part...so sad :'(
God bless yall the biggest thing is now is we need to stop marketing vegan and vegetarian foods as things like beyond Burger or cauliflower nuggets we need to call him what they are and they're delicious as it is but I would much rather have a vegetarian diet vegan diet than to consume animal products I don't feel well after I eat them but you're right and you said it that is mostly what is available on the grocery stores and when I went vegan for a time which I plan on doing again it was depressing because I had very little to choose from so thank you from the bottom of my heart thank you for helping
Notice, the chickens are so physically debilitated, they can't even move to escape being captured.
Correct me if I'm wrong...but...don't mushroom farms need manure? I'm still watching it right now...may be answered in a min or so lol.
They do not need manure. They just need ansubstrate such as wood or grain to grow on.
Wood chips are a option for Mushrooms. They do not cover this in the video however.
Great and touching vídeo. Go Vegan ♥
All the face licks & kisses!
Hi, I am in the process of buying a farm that house two chicken houses. 42x400. Trying to figure out what to do with them other than storage units. I am not interested in raising chickens, raising mushrooms has definitely got my attention. Please advise if you have the time. what state do you all live in. Thanks
