This week on the podcast, we have Howard Allen of Faithful Farms in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. We talk about his childhood growing up in agriculture in Jamaica, his training as a professional chef and educator, no-till strategies in breaking new ground, practical management of no-till beds across multiple locations, his approach to farm ministry and how fresh food access inspires his growing, and using a franchise mentality to make your farm work flow. What an expansive conversation we had, it covers a little bit of everything. Really enjoy every opportunity we get to bring Southern growers into the fold, too. Check out the video we uploaded on his baby greens bed flip on YouTube!
