Show notes at smallfarmnation.com - Each month,I conduct a mastermind interview for members of the Small Farm Nation Academy.

They’re video calls between me and an expert in matters that relate to growing a profitable farming business, and they tend to be an hour long, give or take.

In this episode, I’m gonna share some highlights of my discussion with Jordan & Laura Green of J&L; Green Farm in Virginia.

The Green's have built a fast-growing pasture-based meat business and, get this...they don't even own a single acre of farmland.

We discuss:

how they started their farm

farm investors, partners and contractual relationships

the pros and cons of selling at farmers markets

why J&L; Green Farm hasn't aggressively pursued selling to restaurants

logistical issues shipping frozen meat products

delivering farm products via drop sites (or metropolitan buying clubs)

and so much more that relates to marketing and running a farm business

So listen in, now.
