Here, your insatiable curiosity can feast upon good food. Here, a good story only germinates in deep topsoil. Here, you'll get some questions answered you've always had and learn about others you never knew existed. I started this podcast on a shoestring budget in the basement of my 1950s farmhouse during my early days of farming from March 2019 through March 2020. The older episodes sound like a time capsule of pre-Covid urgency that rings still true today. I restarted this podcast three years later, in March of 2023. There is still so much I have left to say. And, we're losing 2000 acres of farmland a day to development or abandonment. The average age of farmers is only going up. And, the effects of climate change are only going to get stronger. If you're like me, you love this planet. You want to preserve it for future generations. The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and we must be the change we wish to see in the world. Listen to the old episodes, but stick around for the new ones.

But not all meat is created equal. We also run sheep and chickens on our farm, but our cow herd is definitely the backbone. In this episode I delve a little bit into how our production makes our pasture-raised beef different than meat you would find at the grocery store. Pasture Beef is the number one land-healing food you can eat. They get quite a bum rap in the news media nowadays, and I think I need to be their strong advocate. Any pictures of muddy feedlots and disgusting environments don't have anything to do with the animals (they enjoy being quite clean), but rather with the farmer who owns them. Farmers own the blame for taking an animal who is able to heal the land and allowing them to ruin it. I interviewed David Boatright, my fellow farmer and best friend, for this episode. He is pretty knowledgeable about everything farming related, so you should enjoy him.
