Hear about the realities of regenerative farming at 8,000 feet above sea level, from the challenging growing and land conditions to the cooperative workings of fellow farmers. Learn about Tyler\u2019s innovative marketing means to get more local food into the hands of more people in his area: a year-round pay-what-you-can farmstand for his and other farmers\u2019 products, a multi-farm meat CSA, and a goat- and sheep-dairy herdshare. (Also, when you visit him at the farmers market, you can make your own goats-milk ice cream using a bicycle-powered ice cream churner!)\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Listen in for Tyler\u2019s best advice for bringing dairy goats to your farm, from goat breeds to feed sourcing and knowing your state\u2019s raw-milk laws. Tyler also talks about his off-farm work with the Quivira Coalition and New Mexico Coalition to Enhance Working Lands, bringing together agricultural and conservation organizations to support farmers and ranchers who are contributing to healthy soils, clean waterways and vibrant communities. And stay tuned until the end to hear Tyler\u2019s favorite ways to eat goat cheese.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.virsylviafarm.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Virsylvia Farm<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/virsylviafarm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Virsylvia Farm on Instagram<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nmcewl.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">New Mexico Coalition to Enhance Working Lands<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/nmcewl\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NMCEWL on Instagram<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HOBBY FARMS PRESENTS: GROWING GOOD<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5349,"featured_media":96389,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[10465],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-96384","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-podcast"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.0 (Yoast SEO v24.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Episode 25: Tyler Eshleman - Hobby Farms<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Episode 25: Growing Good with Tyler Eschleman!
