Low- and No-Till Farming with Horses with Legend Eric Nordell of Beech Grove Farm

Farmer Jesse here with an interview of my own, this one with Mr. Eric Nordell Of Beech Grove Farm in PA. Eric and his wife Anne are LEGENDS in the small farm community. I first learned about their work on the Farmer-to-Farmer Podcast, but they have been organic farmers for forty-odd years. Today's topic... low/not-till farming with horses! We get into everything from weed management, to garlic production, and a whole lot more. You can read more about their farming on their blog-here-and they also have a timeless booklet you can check out called Weed the Soil, Not the Crop. Mentioned in the show...
