BCS products came to America in the early 1970’s at a time when Americans were re-discovering the joys of vegetable gardening and pursuing self-sufficiency. Almost forty years later, there are now many tens of thousands of BCS owners in the US and Canada. Like BCS in Italy, the mission of BCS America is to increase your productivity and reduce the physical effort required to accomplish your outdoor tasks, projects, and farm work.

Another international guest on the podcast today! We had a great conversation with Felix Hofmann from Solawi WeinHeim, a 1/2acre market garden in Germany. He gets into his deep compost approach from a horticulture perspecitve, the “community” aspect of his CSA, his time spent with Charles Dowding at Home Acres, and how his experience with large-scale growing in Europe has informed the efficiency of his small-scale operation (hint: his tomatoes are spaced at 9” with a single leader).
