About this episode
Today, I have the pleasure of welcoming John Boyd to the podcast. John has been fighting the good fight for over 30 years now. He is a civil rights activist, a farmer, and the founder of the National Black Farmers Association. Our discussion today involves much more than farming. We learn about his family roots, the obstacles he’s had to overcome as a black farmer, and how the future looks for everything agriculture. Please enjoy my conversation with John Boyd.
