About this episode
Rob Smith is the director of Viva Farms in Burlington, Washington. Viva farms is an incubator farm and offers not just access to land and infrastructure that beginning farmers may struggle with, giving them time to build their market before investing in those decisions, but also opportunities for a real on-farm education and on-site aggregation/distribution. If you're interested in incubator farms and want to learn more about the programs Viva offers, because we barely scratch the surface here, visit their farmsite.
Also check out the Farmer to Farmer land link program.
