Host and American Family Farmer Doug Stephan www.eastleighfarm.com begins with recent agriculture news about how many small farms make a net profit of a little over 1%, after taxes. Next, we meet Tobias Peggs, co-founder and CEO of Square Roots Farms, in Brooklyn, NY. https://squarerootsgrow.com/ Square Roots Farms is an indoor urban farming company, connecting people in cities to local, real food. Their fresh produce, grown without pesticides or GMOs—is available at grocery stores and restaurants in the same communities as they build their farms. They specialize in Next-Gen Farmer Training Programs, aimed at new farmers, or those at early stages in their careers. Finally, Farmer Doug opines about his pet peeves over two large companies, Archer Daniels Midland and Bayer.
