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. Now introducing the 30” spreader attachment for adding a consistent layer of compost/amendments to a standard 30” bed. Even in a no-till system, there are a myriad of uses for the best two wheel tractor on the market.

Loved editing and so excited to bring you this conversation with Zach and Ilana of Levity Farms outside of Atlanta, Georgia. We cover so much ground: from being diligent about their pre-farming education, the good/bad elements of leasing land and non-permanent infrastructure, reducing their tillage every season, marketing almost exclusively to restaurants, and the importance of making community farming connections. There are also cute baby noises. Thoroughly enjoyed talking with some fellow Southern growers, this is a great listen for folks aspiring to start a farm or in their first years of growing. And check out their GROWERS Live Q&A below.
