There are some conversations that leave you thinking differently long after the recording ends — and my talk with Megan Neubauer was exactly that kind of conversation. I first interviewed Megan in episode # 6, and her perspective stuck with me, so reconnecting with her felt like catching up with someone whose work — and impact — has continued to grow right alongside the movement she’s helping shape.
Megan has this incredible ability to zoom out to the big picture — the future of agriculture, the health of our soils, the role consumers play in shaping food systems — while still staying deeply grounded in the everyday realities of farming. Her journey, from growing up all over the world to building a pick-your-own farm in Texas, gives her a perspective that feels both global and deeply personal. What inspires me most is how she bridges worlds: farmer and educator, grower and storyteller, realist and optimist.
This episode isn’t just about farming methods or business models. It’s about connection — to land, to food, and to each other. Megan reminds us that small farms matter, that the way we grow food has real environmental impact, and that ordinary people have more power than they think through the choices they make. I walked away from this conversation feeling hopeful, energized, and reminded why these stories — and the people living them — are so important to share.
