Propaganda By The Seed

Farming From Gambia to Maine w/ Ousman Ndure


Listen Later

In this episode of Solecast we chat with Ousman Ndure. Ousman is a farmer from Gambia who immigrated to Westbrook, ME. We talk about his life in Gambia, and how he managed an independent market farm. He goes in depth about growing cashews, peanuts, rice, millet, mangos, cassava, and other interesting greens like sour sour(Roselle Hibiscus). He also describes the techniques he used to dig wells in the dry season. Ousman is currently farming a plot at the Hurricane Valley Land Trust.
