786: Judith Horvath on A Resilient Food Supply Chain.Helping small farmers get started successfully.In This Podcast: Twenty years ago, driven by her children's allergies, Judith unknowingly started homesteading—ripping up her lawn to grow clean produce. This journey expanded to a farm. After eight years of a corporate-farming double life, the pandemic prompted a leap into full-time farming and consulting. Now, she helps others embark on farming ventures, fostering spiritual richness.Our Guest: Judith has journeyed from a white-collar business executive to hair sheep and dairy goat farmer.  When Covid and global events laid bare the fragility of our food supply chain, Judith found a way to leave corporate life to concentrate solely on farming.  Today she’s helping launch a new generation of small farmers with the goal of establishing a resilient local food supply chain based on regenerative agriculture methods, rotationally grazed grass-fed meats, and nutrient dense produce.  She’s on a mission to help people get started farming and be immediately successful. Her book recommendation: Miraculous Abundance: A quarter acre, two French farmers and enough food to feed the world.Visit www.UrbanFarm.org/FairHillFarm for the show notes and links on this episode!Need a little bit of advice or just a feedback on your design for your yard or garden?The Urban Farm Team is offering consults over the phone or zoom.
