AR-News: (US-NY) Radio Interview With Veganic Vegetable Producer

[Mike Hudak]

Vegan Rainbow on WHRW (90.5 FM) in Binghamton, NY (USA)
Live on the Internet at http://www.whrwfm.org/listenlive.php

Monday, May 3rd, 6-7 PM (EDT)

Join co-hosts Mike Hudak and Bill Huston for a conversation with Ron 
Khosla, veganic vegetable producer and director of "Certified 
Naturally Grown" (http://www.naturallygrown.org/), the United States' 
largest alternative to USDA Organic certification.

Ron Khosla and his wife operate Huguenot Street Farm 
(http://www.flyingbeet.com/) in New Paltz, NY (USA), a commercial 
vegetable farm selling to 225 local CSA (Community Supported 
Agriculture) families as well as 3 restaurants and 2 natural food 
stores.

Since 1999 they have farmed veganically, that is, organically with 
the additional restrictions of no animal manure nor bone/blood/fish 
meal. Over the ensuing years their farm has become one of the most 
efficient in the Northeastern U.S., producing one of the highest 
ratios of tons of food harvested per man-hour of labor even as 
repeated soil tests show continuous improvements to their soil's 
organic matter levels, soil structure and nutrient ratios.

Questions for Ron about veganic agriculture and related issues can be 
phoned in during the show at 607-777-2137.
