We are again in for a great treat, as our panelists detail their many decades of farming experience, giving insight into how things were “back in the day.” Silvia Prevedelli is an octogenarian organic apple, berry and fruit farmer who migrated to the U.S. from Italy in the 1940s and has been farming continuously in the hills above Watsonville. She has a vibrant spirit and a tremendous amount of knowledge to share. Nash Huber grew up on a conventional grain and animal farm in the Midwest and followed the sixties to Washington state, where he has been raising organic veggies, grain, animals, and seeds on the Olympic Peninsula. He may be the Northwest’s most famous organic farmer, and for good reason! Nash will spin tales of the good old days and how things have gotten better ever since.
