The Growing Season

Auteur(s): Arkansas PBS
  • Résumé

  • Join musician and host, Ben Dickey, on The Growing Season – a year-long podcast featuring monthly interviews with a handful of Arkansas farmers as they work through a year on their place. From large-scale, row cropping to cattle ranches and two-acre vegetable operations, The Growing Season will take a long, honest look at the many things “farming” means to Arkansans, and the many hurdles that come with that way of life. This podcast is funded through a Farm and Ranch Stress Assistance Network Grant provided by the USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture and administered by the Arkansas Department of Agriculture.
