About Wild Oak Family Farm Podcast
From the publisher's feed
Wild Oak Family Farm is a small family farm located in Coloma, California. The guiding philosophy for our farm, what we’re calling beyond organic, is based on permaculture principles and techniques.…
We’re going to design sustainable plant and animal systems that mimic the wild as much as possible. We started our farm in February 2018 and are podcasting to share our transition from a metropolitan life in Silicon Valley to a country life running a small farm. For the first few years we’ll be focused on establishing a permaculture food forest, vegetable garden, and livestock systems to produce all of our own food. Our plans for livestock include chickens, pigs, cattle, and hopefully a llama or donkey. You can listen to our bi-weekly podcasts and check us out on social media; the details are on our website http://www.wildoakfamilyfarm.com. Thank you to Jason Shaw for our background music, tracks can be found at audionautix.com.
