  • 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.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Potting Up Properly + How to Broadfork Like a Nerd
Q: Could you explain how often you broadfork your beds and what indicators you use to decide when it's needed?
I broadfork in spring, using a rebar test to check depth of soil compaction; if it goes smoothly to about 14–18 inches, the bed is fine, otherwise I broadfork and add compost on the surface to let it drop in as the bed is worked.
Getting You Prepped for Harvest Season
Q: What packaging do I need for a beginner market garden?
The host explains a range of packaging options, from bags with twist ties or tapes for loose greens to clamshells for retail visibility, with considerations about space, ease of use, and market type; he also suggests checking suppliers like Webster on for sizing and observing grocery packaging to gauge what customers expect, and mentions using various containers like ventilated clamshells and deli containers depending on product.
Big Ol' High Tunnel Mistakes + Should You Heat a Tunnel?
Q: Should I heat my tunnel?
Heating makes sense economically only if the space is used efficiently and powered by renewable or low-cost energy; otherwise, the costs may outweigh the revenue, and passive climate strategies should be explored first.
Lessons in Winter Farming + Certifying Naturally Grown + Work Life Balance w/ Broadfork Farm
Q: What is the role of the Certified Naturally Grown program for you, and how does it affect your customers?
Dan discusses how CNG served as an education and differentiation tool early on, helping customers understand their farming practices, and emphasizes that while organic certification is a tangible standard, CNG provides a direct-to-customer educational pathway and community connection.
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?
Dan explains that winter farming is a tricky balance of maintaining revenue and keeping reliable employees, expanding tunnel infrastructure, and choosing crops that can be grown in winter to extend the season while managing costs and weather risks.
