The Root Down Farm is located in western New York, serving the greater Buffalo area as a mixed-vegetable C.S.A. farm. Now in its second Year, the Root Down Farm has doubled its C.S.A. membership!

This episode is sponsored by Hearst Ranch. When I graduated I realized I wanted nothing to do with my marketing degree. I decided I wanted to put my efforts to some sort of non-profit endeavor...and I found farming. -- Erin Grimley on The Farm Report Because we had such a harsh spring last year, were confident that we will be able to adjust to whatever comes our way this year instead of worrying about making the right decision. -- Steve Blabac on The Farm Report
