Ira Wallace & Mary from Acorn and Southern Exposure Seed Exchange

Ira Wallace and Mary of the Acorn Community and Southern Exposure Seed Exchange in Mineral, Virginia, folks. In disclosure, they are sponsors of the show, but that's not why they're here. They're also an intentional community growing not just food, but also seed crops for Southern Exposure and—on top of that—manage the seed business which contracts with over 70+ seed producers. We get into how the community began, shout out to Twin Oaks who Farmer Jesse interviewed for No-Till Market Garden, community life and decision making, and details about their awesome seed company.

Also mentioned in the show:
The Federation of Egalitarian Communities
On Conflict & Consensus
