Is PaperPot Worth it And Other Questions from the Forum This Week:

Our first couple of weeks on the NTG forum has been bustling and a lot of good stuff can get buried quick, so every week we’re going to “upvote” some of the more interesting threads to give them a little more exposure. 

First, there are threads for farmers in North Carolina (https://www.notillgrowers.com/growers-community/#!/findfellowfarmers:north-carolina-growers) and Kentucky (https://www.notillgrowers.com/growers-community/#!/findfellowfarmers:kentucky-growers) so far—if you’re in a different state, please feel free to start a new thread and connect with growers in your area! Or just show off that you live in a cool state like Hawaii. We don’t judge.

Go! Check out the forum and make sure to engage—myself, my partner Jackson, and many others have been having fun answering questions and even learning to see a few things we take for granted from a new perspective.
