In the 100th Episode (can’t believe it’s been 100 In the 100th Episode (can’t believe it’s been 100 episodes!!) of The Agri-Tourist Podcast, I take you back to Italy - specifically Tuscany - for a conversation that really captures how something small can grow into something incredibly meaningful. I sit down with Arturo, who shares the story of his family’s rose farm (Rosa di Magliano)—one that began not with a business plan, but with a moment. A scent that stopped his mother in her tracks, brought back a memory, and ultimately led to the creation of a farm rooted in tradition, curiosity, and care. What I appreciate about this conversation is how it brings you into the rhythm of this kind of farming. This is not large-scale, fast-paced agriculture—this is intentional, seasonal, and deeply connected to time and place. From harvesting roses in the early morning to preserve their fragrance, to transforming those petals into syrup and jam, Arturo shares what it really takes to produce something so unique and so tied to both nature and tradition. As you listen, I invite you to think about the moments that spark something bigger—and how often those moments are right in front of us. Because this story is a reminder that agriculture doesn’t always start with a grand plan. Sometimes it starts with paying attention… and being willing to follow where that leads.

In Episode 99 of The Agri-Tourist Podcast, we’re c In Episode 99 of The Agri-Tourist Podcast, we’re continuing the conversation with Medway Community Farm—this time taking a deeper dive into one of the most unique and impactful parts of their operation: education. If you listened to Part 1 (episode 97), you heard how this farm is rooted in community, food access, and connection. In this second part, we build on that foundation and explore how they’ve created an education model that goes far beyond what you typically see on a farm. What makes this conversation so compelling is how intentional and layered their approach is. I’m joined again by members of the Medway Community Farm team. First with Board Director Tina Wright and second with Education Director Marlee Blasenheim. Both individually share how the Medway education programs have evolved—from having very little structured education just a few years ago to building something that is now deeply integrated into the local school system and community. From early childhood exposure to hands-on growing experiences and beyond, this is education that grows with the learner. As you listen, I invite you to think about what’s possible when a farm fully embraces its role as an educational space. Because what Medway has created isn’t just programming—it’s a pathway for connection, understanding, and long-term impact. And for anyone thinking about agritourism or community-based farming, there’s a lot to learn from what they’ve built here. Click on the link in the bio to listen to the full podcast episode 99.
