Hey everyone, it's Alex Ball of Old City Acres back with another episode of the No-Till Market Garden Podcast. On today's interview, I sit down with Noah Scalero, of Beetroot Farm in southern Illinois. We dig deep on developing a new farm business and property, farming in a hot and humid environment, and educating beginning farmers through mentorships.

Folks who make the show possible...

Farmhand is the only all-in-one virtual assistant built by and for farmers. Sign up for a free trial with the link in the show notes, because NOW is the best time to dial in those systems for the next growing season.

ASAP (Appalachian Sustainable Agriculture Project) will offer the Business of Farming Conference on Saturday, February 22, in Asheville, North Carolina. Find out more at asapconnections.org.

Since 1972 Ohio earth food has been the go-to source for soil testing, consulting, fertilizers, seed starting soils, foliar sprays and disease and insect controls. Visit them at ohioearthfood.com.

... and, as always, our work is powered by the individual growers who support us every month over at patreon.com/notillgrowers. You can pick up a copy of The Living Soil Handbook if you don't have one already, as well as a No-Till Growers hat or other merch, check out our YouTube channel, and you can ask you questions or share your insights into ecological market gardening on our free growers forum at notillgrowers.community.chat

We cover: Fertilzing transplants, late winter cover cropping, and it's feedback friday!

For this episode, I--Natalie--chatted with Louis Geller from North Spore, which is a mushroom company based out of my home state of Maine. I have known about North Spore since they were founded, which I think was about 10 years ago, and watch their business grow with great enthusiasm because their mission is really cool to bring mushroom cultivation to the masses. And they're doing it very successfully, putting together amazing educational resources to help people get going. I encourage you to check out some of the resources in the show notes for more specifics on cultivating different mushroom species and the different growing systems they've been working on.
