Farmer Erich Schultz joins me to talk about lessons he has learned after moving his farm several times over the past 10 years. Along the way, Erich has streamlined his farming operation to use fewer tools and use simpler processes. He also talks about partnering with developers to gain access to land.

Weekly insights for vegetable farmers and market gardeners who earn, or want to earn, a living growing vegetables profitably. The show is hosted by Diego Footer of Permaculture Voices. Each week I talk with a beginning, or experienced farmer diving deep into their story to find out what makes their market farm successful. I focus on farming challenges and struggles, sales and marketing, soil preparation, weed management, post harvest processing, appropriate technology, farm startup, market selection, and work-life balance.
