Episode Synopsis "Growing Pains & Gains | Andrew Smith, Organic Apple Farmer"

Taking on the family business is a big job, let alone completely overhauling a 133-year-old family orchard. For fourth-generation apple farmer Andrew Smith, the risks were worth it. In this episode, Andrew talks about how he convinced his father to go organic (making them Australia’s first certified organic apple farm), turned imperfect apples into profit, and how fear helped drive his success.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
