## Resource

In this episode of Hort Culture, the crew dives into the surprisingly emotional side of farming and horticulture: imposter syndrome. What starts as a conversation about finally getting much-needed rain turns into a thoughtful discussion about identity, experience, and the pressure growers place on themselves. From first-generation farmers to seasoned producers, the hosts explore why so many people in agriculture feel like they're "not real farmers" — even while doing the work every day. Along the way, they share personal stories about learning through mistakes, comparing themselves to others online, navigating community expectations, and figuring out where they fit within modern agriculture. The episode balances humor and honesty while offering encouragement to growers at every stage: you don't have to know everything to belong.
