iapm33:Mom&Farm

Podcasts

My mom joins me on the podcast today. It’s not Mothers day yet, but hey… it is a honor to get her to show up in Boston seeing as she spends most of her time in Chile. Most days she can be found in her B&B / MUSEUM in Cobquecura with her many guests.
Greenwood Hill Farm
Andrea & Tom of Greenwod Hill Farm

Today’s interview is with the nice folks at Greenwood Hill Farm in Hubbardston, MA. Andrea and Tom share some great insight into what farm life is like and what it means to be local. When I visited them to do the interview they were at the begining of the sheep birthing process. Now they are probably on the Sheep & Wool Circuit. If you rin into them, say hi… and if you end up touching their yarn you may have trouble putting it down (it’s so incredibly soft and excelent for dyeing)
Show notes and links will be updated soon.

MUSIC this week is by ‘Salsa di Soy’ by Boom Boom Beckett

    I really enjoyed this podcast – the interview with the sheep farmers was wonderful! I will look out for their yarn. It’s so great to hear more about the yarn production side of things.
