This week, Vanessa Wood talks with Jessica and AJ Richards about their story, marriage, and their business, From the Farm.
High school sweethearts married at 19, the couple now raises three daughters. AJ shares how a new generation of farmers is doing things differently through direct-to-consumer sales, social media, and regenerative practices.
After COVID exposed weaknesses in the food supply chain, they moved to Cody, Wyoming, where AJ began building a more direct path from producer to consumer.
Through From the Farm, their mission is to help farmers keep more of what they earn while creating a more connected, transparent food system—“shake the hand that feeds you.”
