You can't get this at the grocery store! - Full Interview with Will Young of the Angry Goose Acre

In my interview with Will, we dove into his passion for growing rare and unusual crops—plants you won’t find in a typical grocery store. Will emphasized that there's more to life than the familiar and convenient, tying his philosophy to the idea that change is the only constant. For him, cultivating unique varieties like the “Flaco Bianco” isn’t just about food—it’s about embracing transformation, discovery, and sharing something deeper with the land and others.Will told stories that were as unconventional and wild as the plants he grows, including his legendary encounter with the so-called “angry goose.” This wasn’t just a one-off incident—it became a symbol of the chaos, humor, and occasional danger that comes with living close to nature. His recounting was animated and personal, blending exaggerated humor with a kind of rural wisdom. At one point, we both laughed about how a goose essentially staged a full-blown territorial standoff with him, chasing him across the yard and refusing to back down. Will’s storytelling made it clear that the goose wasn’t just an antagonist—it was a reminder that animals, like people, have their own personalities and boundaries.Throughout the conversation, Will’s tone shifted fluidly between philosophical, comedic, and heartfelt. He shared candid moments of frustration and joy, especially about how his environment—both plants and animals—pushes him to adapt. He sees the land not as something to control, but as something to be in relationship with. Whether he was talking about fruit cultivars or furious waterfowl, everything came back to a core belief: life is unpredictable, but it’s richer when you embrace what you can’t fully understand or tame.Leave a Like and Subscribe if you enjoyed!
