On today’s episode, we are joined by Jhessye Moore-Thomas from the (formerly) Climate Smart Program. She brings us our November “Grower Spotlight” which is Saxmore Farms in Dorchester County. Hear about the Smith Family, who have been farming in the area since the 50’s. They grow many crops and use sustainable practices on their 15-acre operation. In addition to growing crops, they are pillars of their community, helping to educate other growers and even helping to establish the Dorchester Farmer’s Market as an outlet for other farmers to sell produce. 

Anna Sara then joins in to share with us a little bit of Thanksgiving history. She tells us about the history and lore of the “Three Sisters Planting”. Learn what the planting method is and a little about how different indigenous tribes tell the story of the origin. We hope you enjoy!
