In this week's episode I got to sit at the feet of one of my mentors, dear friends and comrades in the movement brother Maurice Small. 

During this first ever interview on Farming in Color, Maurice and I delved into his path into farming, the power of the worm and advice he has for all you young up and coming land stewards and seed savers out there. 

Here is a little bit about Maurice to prime the pump: 

Maurice Small builds community as he creates soil, cultivates organic food and nurtures young people and their families. His vision for sustainable agriculture, healthy lifestyles in underserved communities & urban/rural collaboration between growers & vendors, transforms the food landscape across North America. Maurice was awarded the Organic Pioneer Award by the Rodale Institute in its inaugural year, 2011. He is currently based in Atlanta, GA and is originally from Cleveland, OH and works all across the country to support the development of sustainable food systems for all.
