In this episode of the Brio In The Box podcast, Jocelyn welcomes Arlie from Farm One Forty, located just west of Saskatoon near Vanscoy, SK. Arlie shares her journey from working as an environmental consultant to becoming a full-time farmer committed to sustainable and holistic farming practices. Get to know Arlie and the origins and development of Farm One Forty, the benefits of rotational grazing, the nutritional superiority of grass-fed meat, and the importance of supporting local food systems. Arlie also talks about community engagement through farm tours, children's camps, and adult workshops, offering insights into the interconnectedness of environmental health, human health, and sustainable agriculture. The episode is a rich exploration of how one person can make a significant impact on the local food landscape and beyond.
