Show Notes

Radio Show #33: Host Ronnie Lipschutz and Dave Blume of Blume Distillation conduct a walking interview and tour of Whiskey Hill Farm, its permaculture and regenerative agriculture practices and technological innovations connecting alcohol distillation and organic agriculture.  Whiskey Hill Farm is a 14-acre organic farm on Calabasas Road near Watsonville that employs poly-cropping, permaculture techniques in six large greenhouses to create “food forests” of multi-layered polyculture. Dave is CEO and Director of Research and Development at Blume Distillation and Whiskey Hill Farm.  He is author of the critically acclaimed book Alcohol Can be a Gas! and has been engaged in one sort of farming or another for more than 40 years.  This is an edited version of the full 70 minute tour, which you can hear at: https://sustainablesystemsfoundation.org/201124_0004-mp3/

There is now a video of this tour available on You Tube at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AymRxdkyAf8&feature=youtu.be
