This is the first episode of the "Notes from the Field" series. I visited the Licking Creek Bend Farm in Pennsylvania and recorded part of the tour in the farm's apple orchard. The farm provides produce to a food co-operative in Maryland and Farmers Markets in D.C. The owner, Mike Tabor, discusses the methods he uses to keep his farm sustainable, the pains of growing apples, and how the use of the term '"organic" can be a deterrent for consumers.
