Today I talk about an agave that has been getting alot of my attention lately. The last time I had mature agave Ovatifolia, I used them for spirits and was very surprised by what they put out. I thought then, I need to mass propogate and grow this agave for myself. Since it was unavailable or extremly expensive, it was not feasible for a farm. Now by harvesting the mature flower stalks and saving all the seed i have an affordable option to mass grow these as well as offer them to the industry here in CA at prices that arent robbery. I had to give up making them into a spirit in exchange for having tens of thousands of them potentially able to be made into spirits in the future. I also talk about why seed starting agave is so important for farmers and agave genetics. Enjoy the podcast and have a great day! If you need any Agave Ovatifolia seed, or agave & cactus plants contact me by dm on : instagram: farmingandgardeningcalifornia agaverocaliforniano.com tiktok, youtube and pinterest: agaverocaliforniano facebook: California agave farmer email: [email protected] Also visit and support the California Agave Alliance, at Californiaagavealliance.com, we are working on creating a diverse and equitable agave industry in California. Donations are welcome if that is a mission you support! We are also on instagram as Californiaagavealliance. Have a great day everyone and enjoy!
