In this show, I chat with Jared Pickard who, along with his wife Velisa, is the founder of Be Here Farm and Nature, a Demeter certified biodynamic farm, situated on Spring Mountain, just outside St. Helena, California. Jared and Velisa grow over three hundred varieties of fruits, vegetables, herbs, and flowers without the use of heavy machinery or shop-bought chemicals and they have recently started producing their own range of biodynamic skincare products made from plants grown on their farm.
In our wide-ranging conversation, we discuss what sets biodynamic farming apart from every other agricultural system and Jared clarifies the difference between organic and biodynamic certification. He also describes the unique methods that biodynamic farmers use to care for their land and recounts his recent experience of fleeing from the devastating wildfires that threatened his farm. Fortunately, Jared and his family managed to escape unharmed with the precious bottles of serum for their 2021 cosmetic line carefully packed in their van.
