A Year on the Farm

A Year on the Farm is all about my journey as a female small-scale farmer on Vancouver Island in BC, Canada. This weekly show reveals what life is really like on a small farm and all that we are learning from the land. I share my experience and connect you with other female farmers to learn how to grow beautiful food, manage a small farm, and feed our communities. You can find us at Gather Farm & Kitchen in the Comox Valley, or online at http://www.gatherfarmandkitchen.com Podcast Flashback! To celebrate Mother’s Day, I am sharing a past episode that is one of my favourite topics and a great conversation. I am sharing an interview with Arzeena Hamir, owner of Amara Farm in the Comox Valley. Arzeena and I discuss how small-scale farms can build resilience and adapt to the climate crisis. From water storage to shifting to perennial crops, we cover a lot of ground. Arzeena is a mother and also has worked to heal Mother Earth in our community. I can’t think of a better topic for Mother’s Day. You can learn more about Arzeena’s farm HERE.
