We’re heading into hoop houses in east central Wisconsin to get acquainted with a farm family that produces, in their words, green magic. We’re talking about sugar peas. They are fresh, they are green, they are delicious. Sullivan Family Farm in Manitowoc is growing peas among other specialty crops to live a healthy lifestyle and give back to the community. Ryan Sullivan and his wife are the first generation on the farm following Ryan’s 26-year career with the U.S. Air Force. Ryan found support for his family's farm through the Natural Resources Conservation Service, Farmer Veteran Coalition, Marbleseed, and Grassworks, just to name a few. The next step, he says, is to expand the farm's interaction with the public through agri-tourism. Sullivan Family Farm is enrolled in the Wisconsin Agricultural Tourism Association's Peer-to-Peer Mentorship program. This podcast series is brought to you courtesy of Specialty Crop Block Grant 23-10. Learn more about how to engage with Wisconsin's agricultural tourism industry at https://gowiagtourism.com/.
