Enjoying Retirement While Still Living on the Farm with Dave Pierson of Pierson Farm: EP32

Today’s Episode comes to you from Bradford Vermont where we visit with David Pierson of Pierson Farm. After 42 years of running a mixed vegetable farm to supply a roadside farm stand, with 3 acres of strawberries being one of the big draws, he was able to retire, leasing the farm to a long time employee Dan. We start off the episode walking the farm where the crew is actively planting a new batch of strawberries, check out the farm stand and reflect on the challenges of farming with today’s expensive circumstances, then he shares the benefits of getting to live up to the motto “adventure before dementia.” Thanks for listening.
