Year-round local food with Darren Bender-Beauregard
Many of us here in Indiana wonder how we can access local food as the weather gets colder and warm-weather plants go dormant. So, in three parts, we're asking folks near Bloomington how they prepare for and operate in winter. First up, we sit down at Brambleberry Farm with Darren Bender-Beauregard to talk through his family's iteration of permaculture/homesteading, experimentation with unconventional crops, and how we can engage with the many systems of which we're part.
