In today’s episode, we’re joined by Paul Fleischer, co-owner of The Fleischer Family Farm in Lakewood, Colorado. We explore his journey into food and agriculture, and how he went from a small backyard garden to a thriving 160-person CSA.
We discuss the importance of soil health and how Paul has maintained the vitality of their soil throughout the years. We also talk about the growing struggle of land access, and the many barriers that small scale farmers experience.
