We’re kicking off a two-part Farm Days series that takes you straight into the heart of the SLO County Farm Trail. In this first episode, Adam sits down with some of his favorite ag fam to talk about food, farming, friendship, and how passion and product collide right here in SLO CAL.

Joining Adam in Timbre LoBro studio:

• Lynette Sonne, the powerhouse behind Farmstead Ed and the SLO County Farm Trail, who’s connecting farmers to farmers and farms to YOU.
• Gina Hambly from Hambly Farms, where lavender isn’t just a plant—it’s a lifestyle.
• Jennifer Talent of Groves on 41, who’s crafting world-class olive oil and sharing a little piece of heaven on the farm.
• Chris Battile of Mighty Cap Mushrooms, who turned a garage-side hustle into a mushroom mecca in Tin City.

And mark your calendars: Open Farm Days 2025 is happening June 20–22, with over two dozen farms opening their gates for one of the most delicious, educational, and hands-on weekends in the county.
