Pick Your Own Strawberries

6/26/24 - Host and American Family Farmer, Doug Stephan www.eastleighfarm.com introduces us to Tom Hanson, from Hanson’s Farm in Framingham, MA, is a third generation farmer and longtime friend of Doug and joins the American Family Farmer program to discuss his family farm, the You-Pick strawberry season, and the hardships of getting started. Growing strawberries is more labor intensive that other crops and falls at the mercy of the weather year-after-year, which dwindles down more smaller operations. The conversation not only provides further proof of importance of supporting family farms, but the benefits of how important local farms are to families in the communities they serve.
