In this episode, I speak with Lora Wood about navigating the issues with print collateral (a marketing word for printed items like brochures) and how to get started with your farm business.

In this episode, I talk with John Johnson from Poplar Ridge Family Farm. This is John's first year raising hogs so he started with a small mixed group of feeders. He started his pork business with intentionality, however. Focusing on his brand, his story, and his web presence got him off on the right foot.
