  • Excellent Imformation

    I appreciate the deep dives like the Lettuce growing series with Ray Tyler and the profitable mini farm series with Jodie Roebuck. This is so much better than a quick one session overview with someone! Keep up the good work!

  • Some great info, but…

    So many episodes have great info, but it seems like every 3-4 minutes is yet another ad for Paper Pot Co. No variation at all, just so sick of the ad Spam! At least find some other sponsors to rotate through, please Diego!

  • Really well done podcast. I live next to a farm that is part of a CSA program. It is a privilege to watch the fields transform through every season. There were so many questions. I wondered how the crops were selected, pondered about distribution, hiring advisors and community outreach. This podcast served up quality answers from highly qualified specialists. Entertaining, easy to listen to and informative,

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Lichen's Effects on Drylands
Q: When you look at organisms on the soil's surface, how much of an effect do they have in a system like this?
They have a big effect, with cyanobacteria pumping out significant amounts of nitrogen and crusts stabilizing soils, thereby shaping both infiltration and future plant succession.
Mining Humic Substances
Q: Just right there, I think that might have some people scratching their heads because they hear mining and they think humic acid and they might have trouble bridging the two together and I know there's a lot of sources of humic acid, but from a mining perspective, can you talk about the mine that you guys have and what type of humic acids derive from that?
The guest provides a macro view, describing humic substances as the end products of decomposition and detailing how their mine's humic shale differs from Leonardite, including geology, clay content, and the presence of sandstone layers, as well as how these factors influence the quality and composition of the deposits.
What Your Seed Reps Can Do For You
Q: What exactly do you do? And how do you benefit us growers when it comes to picking our varieties and such?
The guest explains that seed reps serve as an accessible, extension-like resource to growers, gathering field feedback, understanding regional needs, and guiding product development to ensure the catalog meets organic and regional demands, while also assisting with practical questions like tax exemptions and discounts.
Yeast, Lactobacillus, and Phototrophic Bacteria in the Soil
Q: So if I just add lactobacillus to the soil, what is that doing for the soil and the plants in that soil?
Lactobacillus contributes to the soil by producing organic acids that affect the rhizosphere, potentially feeding beneficial microbes and influencing nutrient availability rather than creating stress compounds. The broader effect is stimulating soil biology to enhance plant growth indirectly.
Some Tips on Selling to Chefs
Q: What are a few things you think are important when you're going into a restaurant to talk to a chef about produce sales?
Focus on understanding what the chef values, be prepared to discuss pricing, and offer tangible options like samples or test runs to demonstrate quality and suitability for their dishes.
