In this episode of the Acres U.S.A. Podcast, Taylor Henry sits down with Briana Bosch, of Blossom and Branch Farm and author of The Regenerative Gardener’s Handbook . Briana shares her journey from corporate America back to her family’s agricultural roots, building a successful flower farm while challenging conventional growing practices. The conversation explores regenerative gardening techniques, cover crops, soil health, water conservation, reducing farm inputs, and the realities of transitioning away from plastic-intensive production systems. They also discuss the economics of small-scale farming, direct-to-consumer marketing, U-pick operations, social media education, and Briana’s efforts to bring regenerative practices to her family’s row-crop farm in Minnesota. Along the way, Briana offers practical insights for gardeners, homesteaders, and farmers looking to improve soil health, reduce costs, and create resilient agricultural systems. Whether you're growing on a quarter-acre, managing hundreds of acres, or simply interested in the future of food and farming, this episode is packed with actionable lessons and inspiration.
