Grant Schultz, founder of New Farm Supply and Versaland joins me to talk primarily about Nursery Production.

I asked Grant to be on this show because he has undertaken an incredibly ambitious project called Versaland, 145 acres of degraded land in Iowa that he has planted thousands of trees on and is establishing silviopasture systems that could be a model for transitioning the corn and soybean monocultures of the midwest.

The hardest part of establishing an orchard is generating cashflow in the beginning years, especially when you are putting so much money into planting trees.

Grant has solved this cash flow problem by starting his own nursery, New Farm Supply. He took the liability of purchasing thousands of trees for Versaland and judo'd into an asset by becoming a supplier of the best permaculture plants around.

There is a ton to learn from Grant, so you will inevitable...
