Episode Description:
The standards for organic farming were built with care and good intentions. But when today’s Beet Podcast guest discovered they’d been co-opted, he set out to change that. What started as a farmer organizing turned into a lifelong mission to reclaim the original meaning of “organic” by focusing on the soil. He and Logan dig into organic farming – and the tangled rules around what the word means today.
