Mindfully Developing a Property into a Farm Business with Noah Scalero of Beetroot Farm

Hey everyone, it's Alex Ball of Old City Acres back with another episode of the No-Till Market Garden Podcast. On today's interview, I sit down with Noah Scalero, of Beetroot Farm in southern Illinois. We dig deep on developing a new farm business and property, farming in a hot and humid environment, and educating beginning farmers through mentorships. Folks who make the show possible...
