Good things have been happening at Mustard Seed Farm since it began in 2008.
We talk with Alice McGary and Ami Adams about the MSF's commitment to community service, educational outreach and the growing of good food.
Mustard Seed Farm provides food for a local medical clinic, Food at First and Romero House, in Ames. They thrive with support from volunteer workers and staff. Alice and Ami invite listeners to get involved with MSF events such as the annual "FunRaiser", a Seed Library, a "Swap-aloooza" celebration at Iowa State University and also many classes and work-share opportunities on the farm.
Chef Donna Prizgintas and farmer, artist Lonna Nachtigal explore their rural Midwestern food community with lively discussion and good humor. On the DonnaLonna Kitchen show, their long-running and award-winning radio production turned podcast, the ladies talk about food, farming, recipes, and also offer listeners their advice and opinions. Local and nationally known guests join Donna and Lonna around the kitchen table to discuss how farmers grow our food, what is nourishing and healthy, and what tastes good in which season. Chef Donna and Farmer Lonna are here to encourage simple home cooking.
