Alinee “shiny” Flannery shares with you her top three tips to improve your farmers market sales in this episode.  She talks about what it was like to go from “zero to farmer” when she jumped into a farmer incubator program a few years ago. She now manages her own Scrapberry Farm as part of the Raceme Farm Collective, growing primarily herbs for medicine making. Hear about the microfarms and the individuals—including the strengths, skills and challenges they bring with them—comprising the collective. You'll also learn about shiny's Come Thru Market, a BIPOC farmers market in Portland that has grown by leaps and bounds since its launch in 2019. She tells us about how it's changed and now serves a whole community of farmers and shoppers, plus the market's exciting plans for expanding its farmer training program, in cooperation with Zenger Farm, thanks to a big grant. (You'll also learn how to ask for—and get—$50,000 when you really need it.)

Last week Mandy visited the Apiary at Portland State University and spoke with Isabel Rummell, who is tasked with caring for the bees and supporting student involvement in the program. Mandy first met Isabel at Zenger Farm, here in Portland where Portland Urban Beekeepers keeps its club apiary. They hold work parties twice a month to beekeepers of all experience levels. When Mandy invited herself to the apiary at PSU Isabel generously accepted because she is one of the nicest people EVER. They inspected their 2 bee hives and sat down for a chat in one of the beautiful student plazas. In this interview Mandy shares one of her techniques to prevent bee stings that anyone can do (hint: it involves throwing things).
