A show about farming regeneratively, wisely, and profitably, on pasture: The ins and outs of the craft of grassland management, farm business, marketing, animal husbandry, and the changing nature of agriculture and rural life.
For the past decade, two families have settled on a rolling 120 acre property in Henry County, KY under the name “Valley Spirit Farm”. Together the the Fiechters and Monroes have partnered in the care of the land, and the building of a business that sustains their way of life.
In this conversation we discuss their unique partnership, the ways they’ve integrated their pork and beef with mushrooms and vegetables, plus marketing, business structure, and much more.

21. Ginger Shields on our farms' most important product: future adult humans
When done thoughtfully, farms can provide a great context for raising kids; especially when education is seen as life-long, and as wide as the real world around us. Dave and Ginger rely on their children to run their successful farm business with them. And they rely on their farm to provide the context for learning about the world around them: how to work and learn, or at least to fan the flames of the curiosity we are all born with.
This episode is part one of two from a great interview I did with Ginger. Look for Episode 22 to see our discussion on farm marketing.
