Co-host Matthew Shepherd came from Britain, a country known for its hedgerows. He grew up surrounded by hedges, sometimes many centuries old, crisscrossing the countryside. Early in Matthew's career he helped plant, maintain, and restore miles of hedgerows and got to see up close the wealth of wildlife that live in them. When he moved to America, he was struck by the lack of hedgerows, their place in the landscape frequently filled by barbed wire or other types of fencing. He is very happy to know that this is changing and that there is a movement in this country toward planting hedgerows for their beauty, wildlife value, and economic benefits.Joining Matthew in this episode is someone who has been at the forefront of this effort for a decade and a half. Jessa Kay Cruz is a Senior Pollinator Conservation Specialist for the Xerces Society in a region covering California and the Intermountain West. Since joining Xerces in 2008, Jessa has worked in agricultural and natural lands to create habitat for pollinators and other beneficial insects, and to promote practices that support them. She provides education and technical support to a range of individuals and agencies, including farmers and ranchers, agricultural professionals, and land managers.---Cover Photo: Sarah Foltz Jordan/Xerces SocietyThank you for listening!

In this week's Talk Dirt To Me, we're diving headfirst into the Big Beautiful Bill, and trust us, there's a lot hidden in those pages that every farmer in America needs to know. We break down what's happening with ARC/PLC payments, how they could hit your bottom line, and why you should care. Then we crank up the heat with the National Farm Security Action Plan. Yeah, it sounds like bureaucratic fluff, but it could change the game for who owns America's dirt. Speaking of which, just how much U.S. farmland does China own? We pull back the curtain on foreign land ownership and what that means for real American farmers busting their backs every day. We're also looking ahead at upcoming farm payments, disaster relief dollars, and the harsh reality of how far they don't go for the people who feed this nation. But we didn't stop there. We dug deep into the primal part of every man's soul: the desire to be an outlaw, a renegade, a modern-day cowboy pushing against the system. Why do men dream of breaking free from the herd? We've got some thoughts, and you won't want to miss them. And in our Made in America segment, we highlight Wilde Protein Chips, a crispy, protein-packed snack that proves American grit and good taste can go hand in hand.

When it comes to passing the farm down to the next generation, capital gains taxes can pack a punch. Farmland that's appreciated over decades could trigger a hefty tax bill if it's sold or transferred without the right planning. That’s why understanding capital gains is a key part of farm succession.

Churches in the United States have been regarded as a kind of sleeping giant for elections. The issue is, because of different regulations on nonprofits, churches have not been able to endorse political candidates. And because of this, they've been forced, to an extent, to stay out of politics. Critics have criticized the issue the other way though, noting that the regulations have acted as a government restriction on religion. And now, things have changed.

Halfway through 2025, the agricultural land market across the upper Midwest demonstrates remarkable stability despite economic headwinds that might suggest otherwise. This mid-year analysis reveals how 150 parcels representing 35,000 acres have sold at an average of $4,300 per acre—maintaining the strength shown throughout 2024 when many expected a downturn.The regional variations tell a fascinating story of American farmland values. Premium Red River Valley parcels command up to $12,000 per tillable acre while challenging properties bring $3,000 an acre in the same general vicinity. What factors create this dramatic price spectrum within seemingly similar geographies? Our experts break down how soil types, drainage patterns, productivity history, and even micro-climate conditions impact valuation in ways casual observers might miss.Perhaps the most surprising market development comes from western ranch country, where grassland values have surged 10-15%. With cattle markets reaching historical highs, grazing properties that historically fetched $1,200-1,400 per acre now regularly exceed $1,800. This demonstrates agriculture's cyclical nature—as row crop economics face pressure, livestock operations gain purchasing power.The psychological impact of weather continues to drive market sentiment. A significant drought buster in mid-May transformed western Dakota auction results almost overnight, highlighting how precipitation patterns remain the ultimate market mover in agricultural communities. While modern farmers deploy sophisticated technology and financial instruments, Mother Nature still holds the ultimate leverage.The buyer pool has evolved since the frenzied markets of recent years. While attendance remains robust, active bidders have decreased from 20-25 per auction to single digits in many cases. Online participation continues to strengthen, and investor presence has increased compared to 2022-23. Yet the fundamental driver remains constant—quality land commands premium prices from buyers who recognize its long-term value.Looking toward the second half of 2025, several extraordinary properties are coming to market, including Black Hills parcels with direct views of Mount Rushmore and bordering Custer State Park.

New possibilities for farmland access byond just ownership, with Kristina Villa

Regenerative Skills

Since I've been working in the regenerative agriculture and ecosystem restoration sector for about a decade now, there are a number of subjects and questions that keep coming up again and again. Everything from How to finance a regenerative transition, What initial steps to take to accelerate ecosystem restoration, and the big one, How can I get access to land. Anyone who has been in this space for any time knows that land access has become one of the biggest hurdles for people who are motivated to start farming, regardless of the enterprise or practices they want to start. Even people who come from landed families face difficulties in transferring land ownership in a way that doesn't saddle the recipient with debt. The fact that land has become a financial commodity and the demand from developers and speculators has all contributed to soaring prices and predatory loan conditions too. Yet there are alternatives, and that's exactly what we're going to explore in this episode where I'll be speaking with Kristina Villa.  Kristina is the co-executive director of the Farmer's Land Trust, a farmer, communicator, and community coordinator who believes that our connection to the soil is directly related to the health of our bodies, economy, and society. With over a decade of farming, communication, and fundraising experience, Kristina enjoys using her skill sets to share photos, stories, and information in engaging ways which help to inspire change in human habits and mindsets, causing the food system, climate, and overall well-being of the world to improve. Kristina has spent the last several years of her professional career saving farmland from development and securing it in nonprofit land holding structures that give farmers, stewards and ranchers long-term and affordable access and tenure to it. Most of her work in the land access space has focused on equitable land security for BIPOC growers, addressing the inequities and disparities in how land is owned and accessed in this country. In this episode we cover the vast topic of land access, while touching on the history of land privatization and how so many groups of people have been systematically removed from land access, how land has become increasingly unobtainable, especially for farmers, traditional models of common land access and how the farmland commons offers a modern legal template for equitable land access for farmers in the modern context. We really take the time to go into specifics here as we explore case studies of non-profits that have setup farmland commons in their communities, how those legal entities are organized and maintained, and how the basic structure can be adapted to the unique needs and focus of the communities that they serve. This is a very important topic for anyone interested in non-conventional paths to farmland access and tenureship, but also for those who might be considering retirement from their own farm and are motivated to enable a legacy of stewardship on their farm rather than selling the landbase itself.

We all need land to eat, but more and more, farmland has become a financial asset instead of a source of food, livelihood, and community. And when agriculture becomes just another investment, we risk losing something essential, not just for farmers, but for the health, resilience, and future of our entire society.Journalist and researcher Sarah Mock joins us to unpack the deep consequences of treating land like a commodity - from pricing out new farmers, to consolidating ownership, to weakening the rural communities that once thrived around agriculture.We explore the forgotten history of agrarian populism, the modern land trap that affects both aging landowners and aspiring farmers, and why the future of food depends on rethinking ownership - not just optimizing yields.In this episode, we dive into: Why land "defies capitalism" - and what that means for our food system. The double bind of retiring farmers and new farmers locked out by land prices. How the disappearance of agrarian populism has shaped today's agriculture policy. The myth of the silver-bullet tech fix for food and farming. Real alternatives to land as a speculative commodity. And what it would take to make small and mid-size farming viable again.More about Sarah:Sarah Mock is a food and agriculture writer, researcher, and podcaster. She grew up on a small farm in Wyoming, and since then has spent more than a decade working on everything from farm production, strategy, and marketing to ag history and economics to food logistics, supply chains, and climate impact. She's worked in and around agriculture across the country and around the globe, with non-profits, the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Silicon Valley companies, the national news media, and directly with farms. Her work has culminated in a number of award-winning projects, including her best-selling book Farm (and Other F Words) and her podcast series The Only Thing That Lasts, which explores the past, problems, and possibilities of American farmland.

In this deeply resonant episode of The Family Biz Show, Michael Palumbos sits down with Mike Young, fourth-generation family business leader and author of The Farmer's Code. From a humble start farming rice in the Californian desert to exiting a vast family farmland portfolio, Mike offers a masterclass on pivoting, stewardship, and enduring family cohesion. Key Themes: Roots in the Soil (00:00–06:30) Mike recounts the origins of Wegis & Young—his great-grandfather's immigration, renaming, and pioneering efforts in California's Central Valley. Their early crops, including rice and sugar beets, were nourished by water captured in sloughs, laying the groundwork for some of the most productive farmland in the world. Scaling Across Generations (06:30–10:00) Each generation innovated: Mike's grandfather focused on water infrastructure and expansion His father and uncle introduced higher-return crops like almonds and grapes Mike's generation added vertical integration with alfalfa cubing and tomato processing before exiting those businesses From Dirt to Data: The Tech Pivot (10:00–13:00) A standout innovation was a water infrastructure monitoring company—proof that the family adapted not only operationally but strategically, leaning into regulatory change as a catalyst for growth. Exit to Endure (13:00–16:00) Selling 85% of their farmland wasn't easy. But with water rights tightening and G5 & G6 in mind, they chose continuity over sentiment. Mike emphasizes that the land still operates—but now from a stewardship mindset. Legacy is Relational (17:00–20:30) The spark for Mike's book The Farmer's Code was his 99-year-old grandmother. The message: Legacy isn't what you leave for people—it's what you leave in them. His book is broken into three parts: Me, Them Now, and Them to Come—mirroring his family's approach to multi-generational values. Governance Done Right (30:00–36:00) With a family board of directors, six trusts, and a family council, Wegis & Young model effective governance. Their structure includes even non-active family members and outlaws—communicating, sharing philanthropic decisions, and guiding distribution policies. Challenges Ahead (41:00–46:00) Mike's top challenge? Maintaining cohesion in a generation that won't work together daily. With 11 next-gen family members ranging from 12 to 24, the family is experimenting with ways to build connection across the branches. Tangible Takeaways Don't fear the exit—it may be your legacy's best move Legacy isn't inheritance—it's influence Strong governance includes everyone Strategic philanthropy is a sandbox for rising leaders Always build with the 7th generation in mind

In this episode, we welcome David McMillan back to the show, co-founder of Montreal's famed Joe Beef restaurant, and now winemaker in the countryside of Quebec. In this wide ranging conversation, we discuss the growing industry of locally made wines, farmland access, indigenous growing practices, David's evolving diet, cooking advice, and what it means to support “true” local agriculture and business. David advocates for small, heartfelt, chef-owned restaurants, criticizing luxury excess and corporate influence. With Michelin arriving in Quebec, he warns against the loss of local food identity.

What's the first thing you think about when you hear the term farmland?  Most people have likely never thought about investing in farmland, but today, I have the perfect guest to explain why you might want to consider it. Rob Moore, general manager at AcreTrader, dives into the details of farmland investing appeal as an asset class and why it can be a powerful addition to a diversified portfolio, especially during uncertain economic times.  Rob breaks down the fundamentals of farmland investing, explaining how AcreTrader's platform works, what makes farmland investments unique, and the logic behind buying a finite resource in a world with growing demand and shrinking supply. Rob and I contrast farmland ownership with other forms of real estate, clear up myths about big corporations taking over family farms, and discuss the mechanics of lease agreements, appreciation, and investor returns.  We highlight the intersection of technology, generational farming, and accessible investing, reminding you why sometimes the best asset class is the most boring one in your portfolio. Growing up in multiple farming communities, I have wanted to have this conversation for some time. Please enjoy my conversation with Rob Moore.
