Description

The year after the Kramer’s went all in on walnut farming, the commodity market collapsed. And then it collapsed further. Today Kaben Kramer shares how walnuts are grown, why he doesn’t like to term ‘regenerative’ anymore, how the watershed works on his farm, the reason no one can afford to start a walnut farm today, and how he and his wife Jenn are forging a new path within an industry that is seemingly collapsing in real time around them. Kaben also shares how they’re conserving precious water in California, and the number one way consumers can improve our food system today.
