And travelers are eager to tour and pitch in at these working farms, an area where foodie culture, wellness and outdoor life intersect.

In this episode, host Rebecca Tobin and hospitality editor Christina Jelski dig in about resort farms, orchards and food-to-table operations with Kurt Bjorkman of the Ranch at Laguna Beach and Sarah Fazendin of Videre Travel.
