Jamison Farm’s memoir, Coyotes in the Pasture and Wolves at the Door, recently got a quick spotlight in a YouTube Short posted by their publisher, Word Association Publishers. The short video—under a minute long—briefly showcases the book cover along with a few key phrases that hint at the story behind the Jamisons’ decades-long journey in sustainable farming.
The video, available to watch here, keeps things simple but effective. With a series of bold title cards, it introduces viewers to the heart of the book—John and Sukey Jamison’s life raising grass-fed lambs in western Pennsylvania and building a respected farm from the ground up.
While it’s not a full interview or in-depth feature, the YouTube Short serves its purpose well: putting a spotlight on a compelling, homegrown story. The visual format catches the eye and leaves just enough curiosity to inspire viewers to learn more about the book and the people behind it.
Published by Word Association Publishers, Coyotes in the Pasture and Wolves at the Door is a blend of memoir, food writing, and entrepreneurial grit. It tells the story of how the Jamisons left behind conventional careers to raise lambs on pasture and deliver their products to some of the top restaurants in the country—all while staying rooted in their values.
The YouTube Short is a bite-sized piece of digital promotion that gives this book a moment to shine among Word Association’s catalog. It’s a great reminder that sometimes a simple nudge—like a short video—can spark interest in a story worth telling.
If you’re curious about farm life, small business resilience, or just want a good read with a personal voice, check out the video and consider picking up the book. Sometimes the shortest stories are just the beginning.
