    Joe –
    Outstanding Episode! Was very interesting listening to Nathan directly. I really appreciated you covering the “farmers” that are selling produce that is not theirs.

    How about an interview with Patty sometime too?

    Thansk again, Joe!

      Thanks for the kind words Steve. Yes, I wish we had an hour show so Nathan could share so much more than the tease we get on each episode. He really is a treasure and I’m so glad he’s part of our GGW team. I’m sorry the audio quality on his end was not the best but I’ll have him in studio in January for a much better archive. And as for Patti, I’m sure we’ll be lining that up soon as well. Thanks again.
      Joe
