For my last episode, it was an honor to talk with Jo Ann Baumgartner, the executive director of Wild Farm Alliance. Wild Farm Alliance is celebrating 25 years of working to promote healthy viable agriculture that helps protect and restore wild nature. You can get involved with their work if you are interested in having nesting boxes or raptor perches on your farm, AND THEN your farm can be included on the VER YCOOL flyways trail. Stay tuned for the end of the conversation, I have some parting thoughts about the current state of agricultural research...
Folks who support the show...
Farmhand is the only all-in-one virtual assistant built by and for farmers. Sign up for a free trial with the link in the show notes, because NOW is the best time to dial in those systems for the next growing season.
... and, as always, our work is powered by the individual growers who support us every month over at patreon.com/notillgrowers. You can pick up a copy of The Living Soil Handbook if you don't have one already, as well as a No-Till Growers hat or other merch, check out our YouTube channel, and you can ask you questions or share your insights into ecological market gardening on our free growers forum at notillgrowers.community.chat

Today, Alex Ball has conversations with two of his favorite farmer friends and mentors, Adam Mitchell and Lindsey Steele, who have both helped over the last few years develop his individual business, become a better farmer, and grow his understanding of what it means to be feed his community. They dig deep on soil building through deeper woodchip application, scaling-up and fine-tuning a greens business, and aggregating fresh produce from and for other farmers in your local community. So any further ado, let's have Alex's last interview with Adam Mitchell at Country Valley Farm and then Lindsay Steele of Garden Fort.
Folks who make the show possible...

Peter Allen of Mastodon Valley Farm in Wisconsin studied ecology and was particularly inspired by restoration ecology and the idea of humans as keystone species. Peter and his wife Maureen left academia to homestead in 2012 and their journey has rivaled that of the eponymous incognitum that they named their farm after.
Folks who make the show possible...
