Ep 18. No-Till Market Gardening with Daniel Mays of Frith Farm

This week, I talk to Daniel Mays about his diversified farm and how he manages a no-till, intensive vegetable operation and pastured livestock near Portland, Maine. Daniel started Frith Farm in November of 2010. He believes farmers should be stewards of the land, not miners of its resources, and that farms should be hubs of the community, not distant sources of its calories.
