About The Daily Pasture

The Daily Pasture is a satirical publication about American absurdity, written from a real farm where the sheep have become alarmingly interested in politics, culture, power, media, money, wellness, technology, and modern life.

This was not the plan.

The sheep were originally brought to North Star Farm to graze, look charming, and contribute to the peaceful rural atmosphere people associate with simpler living.

Instead, they began issuing statements.

Then they identified patterns.

Then they formed committees.

Then they started reacting to public life with the confidence of cable news panelists, venture-backed wellness founders, political consultants, and people who have never met a problem they could not solve with a rebrand.

The result is The Daily Pasture: a home for satirical essays, poems, serialized stories, sheep dispatches, strange headlines, and books about the ongoing comedy of American life.

Here, politics, culture, business, wellness, media, technology, ambition, status, collapse, delusion, and whatever Marvin saw near the fence line are all treated as part of the same unfolding situation.

No one asked the sheep to explain modern life.

They proceeded anyway.

The Daily Pasture is produced at North Star Farm in Franklin, New York, a real 75-acre farm with blueberries, glamping domes, trails, sheep, donkeys, a sauna, hot tubs, and a troubling amount of editorial activity.

The farm itself remains operational.

The commentary is less supervised.

Free subscribers receive satirical essays, sheep dispatches, poems, story previews, headline drops, and occasional updates from the pasture on politics, culture, media, money, wellness, and the ongoing absurdity of American life.

Paid subscribers receive:

  • Full archive access

  • $100 off a stay at North Star Farm

  • Occasional Inner Pasture member benefits and early access to new features

Paid subscriptions help support a small family farm, a flock of sheep, and the work of building an independent satirical universe from the pasture.

They also support the books, stories, and larger creative projects growing out of The Daily Pasture, including serialized fiction, satire collections, fables, and whatever other literary situations the sheep escalate into.

The editorial staff includes Fancy Pants, Janet, Simone, Whitney, Marvin, Bruce, and Frankie.

Their qualifications are unclear.

Their confidence is not.

Subscribe to The Daily Pasture and join the only media operation brave enough to admit that no one knows what is happening, but several sheep are willing to form a committee about it.
