  • Soil science and hope

    I’ve had Jesse in my ear for the last year, and I’m so grateful. I came for the farming advice, and I’ve stayed for his incredible attention to what else is possible in a country hellbent on destroying its natural resources.

Lessons in Winter Farming + Certifying Naturally Grown + Work Life Balance w/ Broadfork Farm
Q: How does your winter farming strategy work, and what are the main challenges and benefits?

Lessons in Winter Farming + Certifying Naturally Grown + Work Life Balance w/ Broadfork Farm
Q: Could you introduce your farm and explain where you operate and what you do there?
Dan describes Broadfork Farm in Central Virginia, highlighting their five-acre parcel with about two and a half acres in active production, their shift away from animals toward vegetables and flowers, and their year-round bread and CSA offerings as core parts of the business.
Small Solutions Solve Big Problems + Don't Transfer that Potato Disease
Q: Is there anything I can do to the soil to prevent the potato scab virus from affecting the potatoes grown from that seed?
It's recommended to avoid planting any disease plants, but soil treatments like adding biological inoculants may help limit the effects.

Q: What should I do about the sprouted wheat in my garlic rows?
