New faces at the Barnraiser facility; Dickerson plans his next move just like Gruden.

We learned about Deb Rock and Sonoma Hot Sauce on a previous episode with Eileen Gordon of Barnraiser and wanted to learn more about the journey of a woman who likes it hot - really hot. Deb Rock grew up with hot sauce and it was an important part of seasoning the meal as well as the conversation. After 20 years of giving her special recipe to friends and family she was determined to create a business around her passion and share her version of Tabasco 2.0 with the rest of us. Deb explains why Sonoma Hot Sauce is as good as it is and with just a few distinguishing methods that separate her sauce from the commercial versions; the peppers spend a minimum of 100 days on the vines, it takes at least a year from seed to bottle, and there are easily one pound of peppers per 5 fluid ounce jar. With her 4 ingredient sauce, her enthusiasm about being an agripreneur and her seed saving process, her field blend Sonoma Hot Sauce is a winner.

EP46: We were in for a real treat sitting down and recording with Founder, Eileen Gordon of Barnraiser. Not only did she entertain us with passionate stories, she also brought a few samples for us to taste. What is Barnraiser? Starting as a crowdfunding space for small batch food and farmers, it is becoming the largest independent source to discover and shop small production foods from all over the workd or as Eileen describes as an "Etsy of food". You know this is true when you take a look at the website https://www.barnraiser.us/ and start salivating as you discover new foods you never knew existed. On the website you have the ability to search, discover through categories, browse and shop. On this online gathering place, you can like, share on social or by email. As we become more concerned and educated about where our food comes from and how it is farmed, produced and raised, this is a surefire way to get to know the makers.

Part one of a two-part series that focuses on farm financing. When farmers are looking to purchase land, expand operations and make capital improvements where do they turn? This episode focuses on the increasingly popular non-traditional routes; microloans and crowdfunding. Female Farmer Project Founder, Audra Mulkern and co-host Kate Doughty talk to both Kiva and Barnraiser about their efforts to support women in agriculture and entrepreneurs. We also meet two women farmers/entrepreneurs who have successfully navigated these alternative financing models.

EILEEN GORDON is an entrepreneur, farmer and the founder of BARNRAISER, along with business partner and husband, Chef Michael Chiarello. Her journey to sustainable food and farming, as well as passion for kids education, came from her farming family in Northern California, long-time swiss dairy ranchers and now cheesemakers. An indirect path from Apple's education group to the Napa Valley leads to her current obsession with the makers in clean, good food movement, and with giving the next generation power over their food options along with an appreciation for the joys of making / growing things. BARNRAISER is a social and funding community that allows its members to influence and scale the food movement by connecting to innovators of sustainable food and farming, celebrating their stories, and collectively backing projects that shape how we farm and eat, locally and globally.

This week features the second in a two part series on food and labor, focusing on living wage issues faced by farmers throughout the country. What are working conditions like for those who actually grow and harvest the food you eat every day? And what can be done to improve those conditions, encouraging the next generation of farmers to pick up the reins. Host Jenna Liut is joined by GrowNYC's Greenmarket Director, Michael Hurwitz and the National Young Farmers Coalition Executive Director, Lindsey Shute to discuss their experiences advocating for and supporting farmers. Later in the show, Jenna speaks with Eileen Gordon Chiarello about Barnraiser, our featured startup of the week. Barnraiser is a discovery and crowdsourcing platform for projects promoting health and sustainability in the food system.
