Eli Wheat is both a farmer and a teacher, splitting his time between SkyRoot Farm on Whidbey Island, WA and teaching at the University of Washington. On this week’s podcast, we get to hear how he balances both, taking the ferry back and forth between the island and the city, and how different the University of Washington urban farm is from his farm! We love this interview where Eli and host Katie Kulla talk about how working with new people has shrunk the farm’s footprint to roughly half of what it was without reducing revenue, how going no-till has changed the farm, innovative ways to market your produce, what an amazing place Whidbey Island is to farm, and more!
