## Resource

The last time Troy Dickens and Diego talked was 2020: no kids, a farm in Massachusetts, and Troy living in a converted school bus. Five years later, Troy and Cindy run Tilth and Timber on about three-quarters of an acre in Castine, Maine, with a five-year-old and a three-year-old on the farm every single day. As Troy puts it: "I must've had all the time in the world back then." Click here to learn more about Troy and Tilth and Timber Farm. Watch the episode here! Interested in watching the series?
