77: Simplifying Farm Management
Manage episode 502803397 series 3354781
Jonathan interviews Joel Barr of Abraham’s Table Farm in Sandstone, Minnesota. Since the time of recording, Joel has also joined SFA’s team of consultants as our Market Garden & Farm Management Systems Consultant!
Joel and his wife Megan have been farming for over a decade, producing vegetables, eggs, beef, and chicken for their community through a CSA and other direct markets across east central and the Metro areas of Minnesota. They don’t believe in just selling food, they’re committed to providing real nourishment through nutrient-dense products to the families they serve. We’re going to dive into how they successfully manage multiple enterprises, and the systems they’ve developed to make it all work and still achieve a great work-life balance.
