I think people are looking forward to that too, just like, oh wait, we need to do something that involves, you know, not being home.
Ever wondered what it takes to juggle a high-stress legal career and run an organic farm? In this episode of 'The Lighter Side', Jay Casale chats with Eli Silver, a lawyer handling child abuse cases for the Attorney General's office and a dedicated organic farmer alongside his wife, Shannon. This unique conversation dives into what 'organic' truly means, the disruptions COVID-19 has caused in the food supply chain, and the daily life on a farm during these challenging times.
Eli’s dual roles offer a fascinating look at the intersection of law and agriculture. He shares candidly about the pressures of his legal work and the therapeutic escape he finds in farming. The discussion also touches on the broader implications of sustainable farming and how community-supported agriculture (CSA) can help us reconnect with our food sources. Listeners will gain a deeper appreciation for the resilience required to manage such contrasting careers, especially during a pandemic.
Eli’s passion for both his legal work and farming shines through, making this episode not just informative but also inspiring. Whether you’re interested in organic farming, legal challenges, or simply looking for a story of perseverance, this episode offers something for everyone.
