Talks w/ Two of Alex Ball's Best Farming Mentors, Adam of Country Valley Farm & Lindsay of Garden Fort
Growers Daily
02/17/25 • 59 min
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...
