Julie Rawson and Jack Kittredge are co-owners of Many Hands Organic Farm, an organic CSA farm that serves 150 families in Barre, MA. They met while doing community organizing work in Boston, and in 1982, made the decision to move out to the country to raise their kids in connection to the land and grow their own food. Julie and Jack share their farm’s transformative journey from inception to becoming a model of regenerative, organic farming.
In this episode, Julie and Jack discuss with John:
Their journey from community organizing to farming and urban to rural living
The financial and physical challenges of starting a farm
The importance of soil remineralization, foliar feeding, and no-till practices
Their careers with the Northeast Organic Farming Association (NOFA)
The release of their new book, “Many Hands Make a Farm”
Fostering community and the broader impact of their work
