Molly Comstock is now overseeing Many Forks Farm.
Molly Comstock is now overseeing Many Forks Farm. Many from the Berkshires know her as the owner of Colfax Farm. Molly’s passion and tenacity for farming and to be a farmer definitely comes through in her story. And her story has a significant focus on the issues surrounding farmers and land access Molly didn’t own her land and had to move her farmland and business a few times. And, for a farmer who invests in their soil and farm infrastructure and invests in building a presence and feeding their local community , it’s not easy to find new land and just start over. Land access and the ability to find a property that provides security to a farmer has become one of the most significant barriers to entry for farmers and wannabe farmers in America. Molly’s story is very interesting and takes you on her journey around finding land, land that she can actually feel secure on and build a long term business on, land that she knows will remain farmland well beyond her… My conversation with Molly is an important one as it is a real story,..and it serves up the complexities around leasing vs. owning farmland..and offers alternatives and opportunities for farmers today. Join me in exploring Molly’s story. And don’t forget to subscribe to our podcast and leave us a review!

My conversation with Jim Sanders, farmer from Wild
My conversation with Jim Sanders, farmer from Wildflower Lane Farm in NC, was far reaching. HIs idea around having food advocacy groups who are purchasing produce from retailers and wholesalers shift those funds to pay local farmers to grow for them, has had a tremendous impact on many non profits in the North Carolina area. Another one of the non profit organizations that Jim’s idea has reached is called PORCH. PORCH fights food insecurity by creating sustainable hunger relief programs at the local level. Started in 2010 in Chapel Hill, NC, PORCH has grown into a repeatable model of monthly neighborhood food drives and fresh produce distribution supplying food pantries, schools, and community programs across the country. PORCH’s volunteer network of 50 chapters in 12 states, has contributed more than $12 million dollars in hunger relief. Porch’s flagship program called PORCH for Pantries consists of running monthly neighborhood food drives to supply non-perishable goods to local food pantries and families in need. Porch has now introduced PORCH Fresh which supplements the non-perishable goods with milk, eggs, meat, fruits and vegetables, and uses local farms like Jim’s to support this need. I had the pleasure of speaking with Nora Dicker, the Program Manager for PORCH Hillsborough and learning more about how they are connecting and collaborating to impact food security. Enjoy my conversation with Nora! And, again, I just want to thank Jim Sanders - as his idea around shifting funds to local farmers to supply local veggies and fruits has had such far reaching impacts… and I am hopeful that these interviews further impact that reach….
