The Agri-Tourist Podcast, my journey back to agriculture! Join me to learn from agritourism farmers & entrepreneurs & help me build my farm strategy!

It’s not every day we see an agriculture profess

It’s not every day we see an agriculture professional turned banker! Today we will meet one!

Many of us bank at some of the large banking institutions with branding we are very familiar with. If not one of the large banks, some bank with credit unions or invest in local and regional banking institutions. But do you think about how your money is used and invested after it is deposited into your current bank? In all honesty, I didn’t…until I learned about Walden Mutual Bank and had a conversation with the CEO, Charley Cummings - agriculture business owner turned banking professional. If you care about agriculture, farming, healthy food, sustainability, and our Earth, then why wouldn’t you consider investing your money in a banking institution that cares about the same things…where your deposits are invested back into agriculture, farming, food, sustainability and our Earth? And if you are a growing company in any of these industries and are located in New England and NY, Walden Mutual has financing options for you to consider.

Enjoy my conversation with Charley Cummings from Walden Mutual Bank. And even if you don’t move your money right away, research how your bank is investing its funds and whether it is in alignment with how you would want your money to be invested.

“It is never too late to take the first step tow

“It is never too late to take the first step toward our dreams, no matter how big or impractical - or seemingly outrageous.” This is a quote from Jane Lee Rankin from her compelling memoir called Farm Family…This is a book about the adventure that created Apple Hill Farm in North Carolina. It’s all about how a solo mom with a broken heart and no farming or livestock experience created a renowned agritourism destination and thriving mountaintop farm.

A chance encounter with an alpaca in the year 2000 at the Kentucky State Fair planted a seed for Jane (aka Lee) that grew into a big and life defining dream of wanting to raise alpacas. I have to admit that I know very little about alpacas but after reading Farm Family and interviewing Jane, I want to drive down to her farm and meet these animals that Jane describes as having a deep “spiritual knowing.”

To quote Jane - “A farm was the perfect environment to raise a young son. Through the challenges that arose on the journey it was Will and my faith that provided the strength to get up and keep moving forward. Somewhere along the way, I became a farmer, a lover of land, animals and plants, and a memoir writer….”

Jane recognized the importance of being in the moments with her son Will and, throughout the memoir, we had the opportunity to experience those important, memorable moments of love and learning. Jane’s connection to her son Will, the land, the animals, and the people she attracted to share in her journey, are truly compelling.

Apple Hill Farm is open year round for guided walking tours to meet and learn about the animals. In summer they offer experiences such as
Barn quilt painting
Goat yoga
Knitting with the alpacas
And more…

They also have an Apple Hill Farm Store that sells all sorts of amazing items such as yarn, alpaca socks, gloves, apparel, and honey.

And, in addition, Jane helps other farmers and entrepreneurs by offering classes on agritourism and educates people about farming, animals and where food comes from.

There is nothing like the taste of a real, authent

There is nothing like the taste of a real, authentic New England maple syrup. This one is not located in Vermont - it’s located right in the Berkshires! And I even had the chance to spend a few hours touring and tasting my way through this amazing farm.

Justamere Tree Farm is located in the town of Worthington MA. The land was purchased in 1982 and owned by JP and Marian. They fell in love with a 26-acre wooded lot with a brook and hunting cabin and farmed the land for 38 years. The woods became their livelihood, the earth their roots, and the trees their grounding.

The farm is newly owned by three inspirational women - Kelly, Kim and Deb. It is now an all women-owned maple business that runs on clean, renewable energy. And it is situated on 60 acres of rolling hills filled with maples and birch.

I had the pleasure of speaking with Deb who spent most of her career as a biologist for the US Fish and Wildlife Service and lived in many places including Connecticut, Maine, and Alaska. She believes that private landowners and sustainable agriculture play an integral role in conservation. That is why she fell in love with Justamere Tree Farm and the ethic behind the business.

Her business partner Kelly grew up outdoors as a competitive ski and mountain bike racer who is passionate about a life focused on nature and the environment. After spending time in her childhood on a farm in Ohio, Kelly has now returned to her roots.

And Kim grew up riding horses through the fields and forests of rural Alabama. She lived in Alaska for over 20 years where, among other things, she did backcountry search and rescue with her dog. Her lifelong passion for the outdoors, and the beauty of New England drew her to this new adventure.

Join me in learning about this special maple forest in the heart of the Berkshires and learn all about Justamere’s authentic and unique maple products, some favorites being the maple seasoning, maple hot cocoa, cinnamon maple sugar, and so much more.

Enjoy my conversation with Deb, one of the owners of Just- A- Mere Tree Farm.
