Today, host Alex Ball sits down with Chirstian Flickinger of Renegade Acres to discuss their certified organic heirloom vegetable farm and their organic seed business, Garden Hoard.
They are a year round operation growing produce through the spring-fall for sale to farmers markets while saving and processing seeds for winter packaging and sales. Their business started as a seed business, Garden Hoard, and grew into the actual production farm Renegade Acres. Katie, who started the seed business, is a mastermind of planning and her family history with saving seeds was the start of the business.
A major discussion of the interview is work life balance, and Katie & Christian are working really hard to enjoy their lives outside of farming. By prioritizing experiences and time together outside of the farm they are finding balance in their lives and making their farm more productive. Farming is a full time lifestyle that can easily consume you, and they are working hard to not let that happen.
