Listen "Geoffrey Long: Farming for health and community - Episode #8"

Episode Synopsis

Geoffrey Long is the owner of Long Story Farms in Newberry, SC. We discuss his farm, his roots, what brought him to farming, and how his farm connects him to his community.

Please pardon the awkward delay. That left Geoffrey and I stumbling over each other a bit, hence the decision to continue the conversation face-to-face in the near future. So much more to discuss! Their soon-to-open retail location, Farms on Main. Southern Agrarians. Wendell Berry. Earl Butz. We’ll reconvene for more soon.
