We get BCs takes on Sexy Seward before sharing the latest Husker football camp updates.

There's a type of heater setup that delivers heat right where you need it and can offer some important advantages over forced air heat, but we don't see many of them in the field. We think lack of knowledge about the technogy is the limiting factor, and it turns out there is also some customization involved, so we got ahold of John Wells at Rimol Greenhouse Systems to break it down for us. The tech we're talking about is called convection tube heating, and it has as much to do with how the heat is delivered as the specs of the heater itself.  The big difference from most heaters is that hot air goes into a plenum (like a manifold) that channels the hot air into multiple separate ducts that are attached to big, perforated plastic tubes that distribute the heat evenly through the greenhouse. The tubes typically run down pathways, and in vining crops they have the advantage of heating the air at the base of the plant, where disease tends to start, and rises from there warming the whole plant. In winter greens crops, it means growers can run the tubes under row cover and only heat the area under cover- meaning you only need to heat the fraction of the greenhouse where your crop is. Listen to this episode to learn about the specs needed to run such a system- plus best practices for cooling the greenhouse with shade cloth.  Connect With Guest: Website: rimol.com Instagram: @rimolgreenhouse Podcast Sponsors: Huge thanks to our podcast sponsors as they make this podcast FREE to everyone with their generous support: Farmhand is the all-in-one platform built for direct-market farms — CSA, farmers market, and farmstand growers who'd rather be in the field than juggling five different apps.

The Draft Animal Power Field Days are coming right up from October 2-4, and horse farmers Becky Frye and Donn Hewes tell us how they farm cooperatively thanks to a connection made through the Draft Animal Power Network (DAPNet). In addition to telling us about the ways to learn about horse farming at the Field Days, Becky and Donn tell us what it's like to farm with horses. They both farm at Northland Sheep Farm, one of the oldest organic sheep dairies in the country which Donn and his wife Maryrose Livingston took over from the original owners. Becky Frye runs Horsetail Herb Farm, growing certified organic medicinal and culinary herbs and cut flowers on the same property. Donn and Becky tell us how they share the Suffolk Punch draft horses between the sheep farm's mostly hay-related tasks and the herb farm. We discuss the differences between working with horses and tractors, and how it's possible to run modern machinery like hay balers and motorized sprayers with horses. So, listen to the podcast, then head over to the Shelburne, Vermont October 2-4 to learn hands-on at the Draft Animal Power Field Days!

Héctor Cuen, co-founder of FH Real Estate, sits down with Nick Fong to share the story behind one of Los Cabos' most talked-about new developments: Solara del Mar in El Tezal.From starting a company with one million pesos and their word as collateral, to delivering over a thousand homes across Baja California Sur, Héctor and his brother Freddy built FH on a simple principle — if you say it, you do it. In this episode, Héctor breaks down what makes Solara del Mar different: full CFE power, 20,000-liter cisterns, solar-ready units, and amenities that are already open — not promised for a future phase.They also dig into the BCS real estate market, Sociedad Hipotecaria Federal data showing Los Cabos leading national appreciation at 73% over four years, why banks love lending in Baja California Sur, and flexible financing options for both Mexican and foreign buyers.If you're thinking about investing in Los Cabos — or just want to understand what a developer who actually keeps their word looks like — this one's for you.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.splitzoneduo.comContent note: This episode includes an extended discussion of the September 11 attacks and their connection to college football.For Relaunch Week, Alex and Richard revisit the 2001 college football season, a year flattened in memory into the dominance of an all-time Miami team but very, very strange below the surface. September 11 halted the sport and jumbled its schedule; a chaotic December put Nebraska in the national championship game after Colorado had beaten the Huskers by 26; Florida and Tennessee settled the SEC East in December; Oregon got left out; and a landmark coaching class signaled that the sport's next era had already begun. This subscriber episode tells the story of the season in about 100 minutes, including archival audio of Lee Corso condemning the SEC's initial plan to play four days after the attacks. In this episode:- 0:17: How Miami's dominance hides a lot of weirdness in the history books- 15:04: September 11's effect on the season, including …- 33:59: How the BCS race became unlike any other - 56:37: An absurdly good crop of new head coaches that reshaped the sport - 1:02:21: Rex Grossman vs. Eric Crouch- 1:15:24: The many eras that were butting against each other here

In the dramatic story of the fall of the Roman Republic, the Battle of Actium is a moment of the utmost significance. A naval action, fought off the western coast of Greece, today's guest, Ellen Jones, explains how Octavian defeated his rival Mark Antony in sensational style. The tangled story of these two political rivals was complicated by the additional presence of Cleopatra, Queen of the Ptolemaic Kingdom of Egypt. In 31 BCS she was the consort of Mark Antony and her dramatic retreat mid-battle remains one of the enigmatic moments in the history of the times. Ellen Jones is an Egyptologist, a classics teacher and a tour guide for ACE Cultural Tours. You can read more about her upcoming tour, 'Ancient Treasures of Cairo', here. Show Notes Scene One: 32 BCE when Octavian reads Marc Antony's will in front of the Senate. Scene Two: 2nd September 31 BCE – the Battle of Actium. Scene Three: 12th August 30 BCE – the aftermath of Cleopatra's (and Antony's) suicides. Memento: Mark Antony's battle plans.

It's that time of year when the pests and the questions about how to keep them in check are building up. So, in keeping with the mission of Dr. Anna Wallingford's New Hampshire Community Supported Research to respond to what growers are wondering about, we surveyed our audience and asked her how to deal with the insect pests that are bugging you this time of year. In fact, we got so many bug questions this turned into a two-parter, so in this installment we talk about how to tell which of three potential pests tomato leafminer might be.  We also talk about how to deal with cucumber beetle feeding damage and the bacterial wilt they can cause, how to deal with allium leafminer, and whether high brix can deter pests or not. We also talk about how to control leaf footed bugs, flea beetles, aphid control in high tunnels, Colorado potato beetles and slugs.

On this episode we welcome back Ginie Servant-Miklos, founder and director of the Bildung Climate School in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, to check in on how this initiative has evolved and also about her recent book, Pedagogies of Collapse: A Hopeful Education for the End of the World as We Know it. The Bildung Climate School is in its third year and set to receive formal accreditation within Erasmus University Rotterdam, one of the great research universities of Europe. Deeply informed by the vision of "Bildung," the model of human development expressed in the Danish folk high schools, BCS seeks to empowers young people drawn from all sectors of post-secondary education in the Netherlands to "face sustainability challenges with resilience, creativity, and care" in the context of "an interdisciplinary learning community, combining science, hands-on skills, and personal development to prepare the next generation for a just and sustainable world." Ginie is an experienced experimental educator and a scholar with a broad range of expertise, as well as a passionate practitioner and promoter of martial arts. She pulls no punches in her book and in our conversation about the dire situation we are in as a species and about how challenging it is to be a young person coming of age today. But her message, and the mission of the Bildung Climate School, is ultimately about hope and an embrace of the most profound facets of what it means to be human. Her work and writing is deeply marked by her own life experiences and the ideas of her intellectual heroes, including Simone de Beauvoir, Paulo Freire, Viktor Frankl, and Hannah Arendt, whose work we discuss in this conversation.Ginie Servant-Miklos is an engaged environmental educator with fifteen years of experience in education practice, research, and advocacy. She currently holds an Associate Professorship with an Education Profile at the Erasmus School of Social and Behavioural Sciences in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. Her research and education work focuses on developing innovative pedagogies for societal impact. She developed the Experimental Pedagogics educational design framework, is the Director of the Bildung Climate School and the author of "Pedagogies of Collapse: A Hopeful Education for the End of the World as We Know It". She is a Leadership Fellow of the Comenius Network for educational innovators in the Netherlands. She is the founder and chair of the board of the FairFight Foundation, an organisation that provides girls and women from Zambia, Zimbabwe, and India with the mental and physical benefits of martial arts practice, as well as educational support. Ginie is a vocal activist for sustainability and gender equality, advocating for change through public engagements like TEDx talks, debates, podcasts, and other digital media outlets. Ginie obtained a Bachelor of Arts in Politics, Philosophy and Economics from the University of Kent, an LLM in International Law from Kent Law School, an MA in International Relations from Sciences Po Lille, a PhD in Education Philosophy and Psychology from Erasmus University Rotterdam, and a post-doctoral research grant in Sustainability Education from Aalborg University in Denmark.

When Kate-Lynn Clark got the opportunity to take over a peony farm, it didn't include the land. So she dug up and moved over 250 varieties of peonies to her family's farm in Brownsburg-Chatham, Quebec. There she runs En Fleurs, shipping peony roots to Canada and the USA, so we figured she could tell us everything about planting and maintaining peonies! We cover the difference between tree peonies and herbaceous peonies, why they need a certain amount of chilling for good blooming, and why intersectional peonies may be a more reliable option for southern growers. We also learn how often to dig, divide and replant peonies, and why this usually happens in the fall. We also talk about why single peonies are mostly for event work, but doubles are better for cuts, good varieties for cut flowers, and best practices for harvest and postharvest handling.

Most leaders think mental toughness is a personality trait. Jeff Jones has spent 20 years proving it is a training system. As a performance coach and former collegiate football coach who has been part of BCS championship programs at Auburn, Boise State, Arkansas State, and Appalachian State, Jeff has seen firsthand what separates teams that perform under pressure from those that collapse. The difference is not talent. It is the quality of the mental reps they put in every single day.In this episode, Jeff walks Spencer and Christian through his 10-Rep Framework for building mental toughness, the same practical system he now teaches to athletes, coaches, and high-performing organizations. If you lead a team, you will leave this conversation with a clearer picture of what mental performance actually looks like in a team environment, and the first rep you can start training tomorrow.TranscriptBook: The Intentional Edgecoachjeffjones.comInstagram: coach_jeffjones

Jeff Stanfield and Andy Shaver are joined by Branndon Stewart, the quarterback who led Texas A&M University to its only Big 12 Championship and first BCS bowl appearance. Before arriving in College Station, Stewart was at the center of one of college football's most fascinating quarterback battles at University of Tennessee, where he competed for playing time with future Hall of Famer Peyton Manning.One of the nation's top recruits coming out of high school, Stewart led Stephenville to its first state football championship in 1993 before signing with Tennessee. As a true freshman, he split time at quarterback with Manning during a season that sparked intense debate among fans and media over who should lead the Volunteers.The guys discuss Stewart's remarkable high school career, the recruiting process that led him to choose Tennessee over several powerhouse programs, and the controversy that surrounded the quarterback competition in Knoxville. Stewart shares his perspective on competing alongside Peyton Manning and navigating the pressure that came with being one of the most highly touted quarterbacks in the country.The conversation also covers his decision to transfer to Texas A&M following the 1994 season, his role in leading the Aggies to the 1998 Big 12 Championship, and how the cultures in Knoxville and College Station differed.Finally, Stewart reflects on life after football, discussing how he transitioned from the game and found success in business and life beyond the gridiron.

In 2023, Maggie Taylor wrote an article for Growing for Market Magazine about several projects she had started as part of a grant program incorporating agroforestry into Delight Flower Farm in Illinois. Since many of the projects were on a three-year timeline, we thought this would be a great time to check in and see how they turned out! The projects included alley cropping, windbreak renovation, wildlife structures, cover cropping and adding an additional high tunnel through the NRCS EQUIP program.  You can read her original article in the link above or show notes below. Then, hear what Maggie wishes she knew before starting her alley cropping project, how having perennials mixed in with annuals affects both, and why it's a good idea to give yourself more time than you think you need for USDA grant projects. We also cover intercropping ideas so you can make some revenue off your perennial beds before they are mature, and talk about how having multiple programs on your NRCS application can improve the chances of getting your grant approved.

Trent is joined by Nick Marovets, Credentials revoked, Caleb Williams Madden Curse? And back to the BCS?

-Andy Staples wrote the article yesterday as we have constant chaos in discussions about what is best for college football's size of playoff andwhat's not—and mentioned that UCF's Danny White says we should consider bringing back the BCS formula in picking playoff teams-A potential mistrust in the voters is one reason why---and there was a comparison of what the committee's playoff rankings looked like vs.what the BCS would have put it at…who's against the BCS coming back???Our Sponsors:* Check out Hims and use my code hims.com/EARLYBREAK for a great deal: https://www.hims.com* Check out Progressive: https://www.progressive.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Chip and Susan Planck ran Wheatland Farms growing vegetables in Virginia for 37 years, and in this interview, we talk with them about what worked, what didn't and what changed in market farming over almost four decades. We talk about founding farmers markets, and then how they pulled off 10-15 farmers markets every week during the season. That involved employing hundreds of people over the years, and we talk about why it was important to hire people and not have them work as apprentices or interns. We also talk about narrowing down your crop list, the group farmland purchase that started the farm, and how they now live in a “hamlet” on their farm. We discuss advice for new farmers, how they rewarded workers who returned, and the business logic they used to build their farm steadily over the years. A lot of this is in Chip's new book, Sky Blue Trades: Essays and epiphanies from thirty-seven years of vegetable farming.

Hour 3 of June 2, 2026 Jacob Townsend and Bud talk about whether Danny White has a point about going back to the BCS formula instead of a selection committee. Then, they talk about the changes to the College Football Playoff schedule. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Have you ever scrolled Netflix for 25 minutes, finally picked something—and then couldn't enjoy it because you kept wondering if there was something better? Or told yourself that if you just had more time, more space, or more freedom, you'd finally write the book, start the business, or get serious about the creative work you keep putting off? We've been sold the idea that more options and more freedom make us happier and more creative. But what if the opposite is true—what if all that freedom is actually making you stay stuck? My guest is David Epstein, a New York Times bestselling author whose TED talk has been viewed more than eight million times. His new book, Inside the Box, makes the case that the limits we resent might be the very thing standing between us and our best work. Some of the things we discuss are: Why "think outside the box" is actually terrible advice—and what your brain does instead when you hand it a blank page. The reason too much freedom raises your anxiety. The jazz pianist who turned a near-disaster into the best-selling solo piano album of all time. The "satisficing" rule a Nobel Prize winner used to free up his mind—and why he owned only three sets of clothes. Why "maximizers" who hunt for the best option end up less satisfied, more regretful, and unhappier with their lives. David's simple three-letter framework (BCS) for putting useful constraints into your work and your day. The almost embarrassingly simple trick David uses to become a morning person and never skip a workout. The Therapist's Take: my three favorite strategies for using constraints to think more creatively, make faster decisions, and grow mentally stronger.

Bret Bielema has been in the room 18 times as a head coach in the two biggest conferences in the game.This year, the room was Big Ten spring meetings in Southern California.Head coaches, athletic directors, commissioners, all in the same space, hashing out the future of the game. And what came out of Terranea this year was one the entire sport was anticipating — a playoff expansion debate that isn't slowing down, a new punt rule nobody practiced for, and a conference room full of some of the best coaches in the sport figuring out what comes next.Todd Blackledge and I brought Illinois head coach Bret Bielema on this weeks episode of Y-Option: College Football with Yogi Roth to break it all down, fueled by our founding sponsor 76, keeping you on the GO GO GO so you never miss a beatHere's what stood out:* Coach Bielema wants 24 teams in the playoff — And he has receipts. He was leading a 12-1 Wisconsin team in the BCS era that got left out and that experience never left him. His argument now, is that the sport has changed too much — NIL, revenue share, roster management — for only 12 teams to have a chance at winning it all. * The punt rule landed wrong — Not because it's necessarily a bad rule, but because it showed up after spring ball, with zero preparation time. In 18 years as a head coach, Coach Bielema has never seen something this consequential arrive so late and so unannounced. * The Big Ten room itself is different — He described it with real affection. P.J. Fleck to his right, Matt Rhule to his left, Dan Lanning and Curt Cignetti in the mix. Coaches who are who they are, every single day. And above all, Tony Petitti — a commissioner who communicates before the meeting, not during it. Nobody walks in cold. Nobody gets defensive. That, Coach Bielema says, is what separates this conference right now.Then we turned to Champaign — and what's being built inside that building.48% of his roster is new and for this program to meet its expectations and recent standards they must develop a true connection with one another and that is the focus of this off-season. The way Coach Bielema guides that is what will stand out. On the field, he's as excited about his wide receiver room as he's ever been, his safeties could be among the best in the conference and quarterback Katin Houser heads into fall camp as the guy.But the line that stuck with me didn't come from the coach. It came from Houser himself, during our spring visit.“Around here, the hallways are warm.”Hope you enjoy today's conversation and we are so appreciative of the support as we continue to grow Y-Option.

If Beat Everyone hits the transfer portal, we're taking a hard look at Pate State. We welcome the one and only Josh Pate to discuss Alabama's national championship prospects in 2026, plus the future of college football. What has he learned from Kalen DeBoer and just about every other high-profile head coach in the sport from his recent sitdown interviews? Are dynasties a thing of the past? Was the BCS the best way to determine a champion? Is Alabama one of the few programs who can compete for a title every year? Why is a 24-team College Football Playoff such a bad idea? Pate talks about all this and MORE! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium get a lot of attention, but there are other nutrients that are just as important for soil and plant health. In this week's interview, we talk with Gregg Forster of Wisconsin Mineral Solutions about some of those other nutrients, including the role of calcium as the “truck” that helps move other nutrients in the plant, the role of boron as the “wheels” on the truck, and the role calcium plays in improving soil texture. But like most things in life there can be too much of a good thing, so we also talk about how much calcium is too much. We also talk about why cation nutrients are expressed in ratios instead of parts per million, what those ratios should be and recommended PPM for other micronutrients. We also discuss why iron should be in a ratio of 2.5 times more than manganese, the many reasons soil should be slightly acidic, and lots more in this week's Growing for Market Podcast interview.

The medical stop-loss market is in trouble. With industry-wide loss ratios running dangerously high, several major reinsurance carriers have recently decided to exit the market entirely. If you are an advisor putting small, 25-life groups into self-funded plans, you need to understand the extreme volatility you are exposing them to.My guest, Mehb Khoja, the newly appointed COO of BCS, joins me to discuss the current state of the stop-loss and reinsurance markets. We break down why the stop-loss model is breaking under current loss ratios, why self-funding isn't always the right answer for smaller employers, and how BCS is strategically using ancillary and voluntary benefits as a form of medical cost containment. We also discuss his journey from pension actuary to C-Suite executive and why introverts can make some of the best salespeople in the industry.▶▶ Sign Up For Your Free Discovery Callcompletegameu.com/agaKEY MOMENTS(00:00) From Pension Actuary to Insurance COO(01:54) Why Introverts Make Excellent Salespeople and Advisors (04:54) The Destiny Health Story: Selling Early Wellness Programs in the Mid-2000s (09:07) Who is BCS?

In this week's interview we hear from Colleen McCoole Payne about how she and more than 20 other growers built the Kansas City Flower Farmer Wholesale Market to help them sell more to florists by working together. In 2023 Colleen started working with a few growers to create a wholesale market similar to a farmers market where they did not need to create an LLC and each grower would invoice the buyers that bought from them. Fast forward three years and now the market just moved into its own permanent space after using temporary and pop-up locations for the first three seasons. Though the focus is on the market, we couldn't resist talking about how Colleen overwinters dahlias in the field, dahlia harvest stage for maximum vase life, and raising brix for pest control. Back on the market side of things, we discuss how they structure the market, the digital sales platform they use and what fees they charge. One of the most innovative parts of the market is how they plan to enable 24-hour sales for florists. We believe cooperatives and collectives like this one are part of a growing trend that will allow local flower growers to access bigger markets by banding together, so listen to this interview for all the details of how they set up the market!

Jakub Kosmowski left a career in marketing to start the vegetable CSA farm Farma Wola in Poland. In this interview, he tells us how he adapted the marketing principles he used with Fortune 500 companies to develop a market for and sell CSA shares for his farm. Jakub tells us how any type of farm can use the four Ps of marketing- “product, place, price and promotion” to think about the big picture before putting effort into marketing. Then we compare the merits of the different marketing channels- email vs social media vs paid advertising- to decide which channels make sense for your farm and how to repurpose the same content across multiple channels. In the process we talk about how to avoid some of the mistakes that even big companies make with things like Super Bowl ads, and how to set realistic objectives for marketing campaigns. He has suggestions for how to fix campaigns that are getting good reach but not generating sales. Jakub tells us how he uses affiliate marketing with local businesses to drive CSA signups. We also discuss how and why it's important to think like your customer, and lots of other tips that will help you raise your marketing game this season!

Most flower and vegetable growers can add herbs to their existing crop plans without changing what they're already doing- and dried herbs can complement the fresh crops by providing a year-round income stream. On this week's podcast we talk with Emily Springer of Meeting House Farm and Collaborative in Maine about how she grows herbs on the farm and sells them through the collaborative. Emily started the collaborative so growers can use the online sales platform to connect with buyers nationwide and ship herbs from their own farms.  She tells us how over 80% of the herbs sold in the United States are imported, and the $12 billion dollar market is expected to double over the next decade. We discuss which herbs are in demand, how to grow and dry them, how to join the collaborative, and the profitability of growing herbs. Though many overseas producers have a lower cost of production, domestic growers can compete on quality and transparency in the herb market. The conversation also covers harvesting, processing, pest management, and how much of the labor associated with drying and processing herbs can be done in the offseason when the farm is less busy.

Everyone loves sweet corn, but can you make money on it? This pod episode sets out to answer the age-old question, and shine light on the best practices that will give growers the best chance of being profitable with this summer favorite. We also discuss whether sweet corn can function as a “loss leader,” i.e. come for the sweet corn, stay for the tomatoes and salad mix theory that might justify growing it at a loss to get customers in the door (or the farmers market stand, as the case may be). This podcast episode is a complement to Dan's article in the January Growing for Market Magazine, “Sweet corn without chemicals: can the early bird beat the (ear)worm?” But we didn't want Dan to have to repeat everything he said in the article, so the article is linked below in the show notes. Though the article covers most of the basics for early and profitable sweet corn production, we cover some additional pests, sweet corn types, and ideas that we didn't have space for in the article.

What does the future of market farming look like in the era of digital sales? Our guests this week, Amelia Ihlo of Rooted Farmers and Jill Shea of the Connecticut Flower Collective had the bright idea to take the 35th anniversary of Growing for Market Magazine as an opportunity to step back and look at the last 35 years of market farming, and think about what is going to shape the next 35 years. As we discuss, the number of farms is going down every day, lots of food is wasted before it even makes it off the farm, and costs are up on pretty much everything. On the other hand, the widespread adoption of digital sales during the COVID-19 Pandemic helped many farms find new markets. In this interview we explore how online sales are continuing to evolve for farmers, and some best practices for increasing sales and reducing friction with customers. Listen and learn how you can make the most of digital sales for your own farm!

In this episode, I chat with Patrick Black, the social media manager behind Baker's Construction Services in Bluff City, Tennessee. Patrick takes us through his journey from working in construction and sales to becoming the guy who grew Baker's Facebook following from 600 to a jaw-dropping 72,000 and got their content in front of over 80 million people. We dig (pun intended) into Patrick's creative approach to social media and online marketing—how he uses storytelling, stunning visuals, and a deep understanding of his audience to highlight the incredible work his team does. He also shares the unforgettable story of Hurricane Helene in 2024, when catastrophic flooding hit Northeast Tennessee. Patrick explains how his company was ready—not just to help with recovery efforts but to document and share the story of resilience and hope through social media. He also highlights how many companies in the construction industry either don't have a social media presence or aren't using it effectively. Social media has become a key way people research businesses, offering a chance to show what you do and build a connection with your audience. Gaining followers is more than just a number—it's about creating a channel where people actively choose to stay informed about your work. Patrick drops a key takeaway: “If the world searched for you in a search bar tomorrow—whether it's on social media, Google, or whatever—would you be happy with what they find? Is it accurate and up-to-date?” That readiness, combined with a consistent content strategy, made all the difference for Baker's. From drone shots to time-lapse videos, Patrick shows how he turned a small-town construction company into a social media powerhouse. Whether you're a marketer, a construction fan, or just love a good story about innovation and grit, this episode is packed with inspiration and practical tips. Ya dig?

Brian Bates and his wife Anne run Bear Creek Organic Farm in Petoskey, Michigan. A little over a decade after starting their farm, they are grossing over $1.5 million from their on-farm store- which is surprising considering that before COVID, their farm was mostly wholesale, whereas now most of their sales come from on-farm retail. In retrospect, it's easy to think the last decade was an uninterrupted period of growth; however in this interview, we'll talk about the bumps along the way and how they overcame them. We also talk about the big pivot that changed their farm from wholesale to retail, how they have used smart borrowing over the years to grow their business, and how they farm year-round and take direction from their customers to make sure they're providing what their customers want. Connect With Guest:Website: bearcreekorganicfarm.comInstagram: @bearcreekorganicfarm Huge thanks to our podcast sponsors as they make this podcast FREE to everyone with their generous support: Farmhand is the virtual assistant built for farmers—helping CSAs scale sales, run error-free fulfillment, and deliver 5-star service.

Luke Sheldrick and his partner Dana run Terramor Farm in Burnstown, Ontario, about an hour west of Ottawa. After a decade of growing vegetables and cut flowers for a CSA, local restaurants and retail as well as farmers markets, Luke uses a number of systems to plan out the farm year and keep the plan on track through the haze of the season. In addition to hearing about the farm, we'll discuss how this all comes together to plan crops, keep in touch with customers and keep track of employees.Luke is also a partner with the Market Gardener Institute, where he serves as a community expert in the Masterclass and teaches the Crop Plan Accelerator program. We also talk about Luke's three different bed preparation protocols including no-till, minimal-till and mow-till. So listen to this episode for tips on selling to restaurants, how to find the sweet spot between over-and-under diversification in markets and crops, plus market cards vs a traditional CSA and more.Connect With Guest:Website: terramorfarm.comInstagram: @terramorfarm Podcast Sponsors: Huge thanks to our podcast sponsors as they make this podcast FREE to everyone with their generous support: Seven Springs Farm Supply is a farm-based supply company focused on serving market gardeners and has been in business for 35 years.

NFC Championship: Rams vs Seahawks — No. 1 offense vs No. 1 defense and why the Rams are built to win this matchup From Indiana’s national title, to the Big Ten’s takeover of college football, to Buffalo’s coaching reset and Championship Weekend predictions, this episode covers every major storyline in both college football and the NFL.

Vince Wilfork is a natural born leader. The five-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle, two-time Super Bowl champion, and BCS national champion never faced an opponent he couldn't handle on the field - a credit to his parents and the challenges his family had to overcome. Vince takes Dan through telling his parents he was gonna be an NFL player at an early age, to losing them in college, and what it was like to realize they'd never be able to see him accomplish his dreams. Vince and Dan also dive into the feeling of having Bill Belichick call him the “captain of the captains, the true leader of the team” and “the best defensive lineman I've ever coached - that's player, leader, on the field, off the field, practice player." Vince also talks about being a key part of the Patriots' dynasty, his relationship with Belichick and Tom Brady, and how in retirement, he's honoring his father with his own line of barbeque sauce, GHI75.
