Paul Arnold's interest in farming started in his 20s as an experiment in his father's backyard.

"In 1986 when I decided to farm, I farmed in [my dad's] backyard to see if I really liked it," said Paul in a 2013 farm tour.

"I worked for another farmer for one summer. And then started looking for land and found the land that we’re going to walk to. And that was in 1988. We bought it. It was just a cornfield and some hayland."

Paul and his wife Sandy have been running Pleasant Valley Farm since the early 1990s. It is located near the village of Argyle, New York, about a one-hour drive north of the state capital, Albany.

Since then, the Arnolds have mentored a number of others interested in farming and continue to farm themselves growing "a range of over 40 types of vegetables and fruits year-round," according to their website.

In Episode 29 of Station to Station with Joe Pavia, Exploring Pleasant Valley Farm & Echo Creek Farm in New York State, the Arnolds and one of the people they mentored, Michael Palulis will share their agricultural journey.
