The Union Square Greenmarket is an important place for farmers. It’s also where farmers are pinched together with famous chefs and home cooking New Yorkers. What a petri dish! And in that petri dish a lot is happening, evolving, changing, always.
Sharon Burns-Leader is the co-owner of Bread Alone, a storied organic bakery that sells its baked goods all over the Hudson Valley and in and around NYC, including in Whole Foods. Just wait until you begin to understand the power of bread and grain and the power of this fascinating marketplace.

Season 6 is starting now. This is a clip from a short introductory trailer. It gives you a gentle road map for where we are going, what we are going to find along the way. But the blueprint is not finished yet. Weigh in. Ask questions. Send me a DM. Post a comment. Spur deeper thoughts. Hold people accountable. Suggest. I invite you.

You know what? Talk Farm to Me is all about farmers. Yup. But it’s so much more than that. Farmers are the characters (in more ways than one, lol). But their stories are about life and society and what we have done to shape it. They’re about what we can do to shape the future too. What do you want the future to look like?
Do you know what kind of impact your food dollar has? I’m not even sure I do and I am the one asking the question. But we are going to get into that.
Where do you live? In a big city? In the burbs? Down a country road? Do you connect across city and country lines? Do you understand the people who live where you don’t? Do you want to? I do. I think we all have more in common than we think. And I think that Talk Farm to Me can help connect these communities by shining a light on common ground. Let’s try it.
