"For reasons of public health and in the interest of a healthy planet, our corporate food system badly needs to be repaired. In One Size Fits None, Stephanie Anderson crisscrosses the country, visiting the intrepid farmers who practice exactly the sort of farming techniques that will serve as models for that needed reform."—Matt Sutherland, Foreword
"Though these recollections have become complicated for Anderson due to her recent research, she writes convincingly that it is possible for her family's farm—and all farms— to find and implement the sustainable practices that will carry them into a better future. Even readers who are not directly involved in food production will come away from this book as more informed consumers, able to make better decisions about purchasing the food that sustains us, and with a much deeper understanding of how agricultural production has changed. And how it will—how it must—change again."—Katrina Gersie-Spronk, Hopper
"It takes an agriculture reporter turned creative writer like Stephanie Anderson to do the legwork of reporting and research to explain how the world of industrial agriculture works. She does so clearly and convincingly, on every page of this book. But she’s not just throwing flames at big ag or careless consumers. She positions herself in the center of the bullseye, as she considers her own family ranch and what she’s come to understand as unsustainable management practices taking place there."—Julianne Couch, Daily Yonder

Nichols, Grist: A Journal of the Literary Arts
"Anderson’s relatable, highly descriptive narrative deftly brings readers into the worlds of the five farmers featured in the book and presents a compelling take on industrial agriculture. Readers, both urban and rural, farm and nonfarm, will come away with a better understanding of how we can move toward changing a destructive system with solutions that are realistic and very attainable. One Size Fits None is sure to prompt fruitful discussions among reading groups, farm organizations, and students of agriculture."—Jenny Barker-Devine, Kansas History
