Where others see stumbling blocks, Kentucky farmer Joe Nichols sees building blocks. That’s how he’s built such a successful and diversified business. And he built it from scratch, starting as a teenager. Today, Seven Springs Farms spans 25,000 acres of row crops and more than 10,000 head of cattle. As a true grow getter, he also has developed side businesses such as manufacturing erosion-control blankets and selling crushed rock. He’s come a long way from the kid who stayed behind when his family sold their farm and moved away back in the 1980s. Enjoy his amazing story.
Grow Getters takes a lively look at creative ways farmers are plugging into their passions to diversify their operations and add new sources of revenue. These resourceful “grow getters” are redefining what it means to be a farmer and are here to inspire and guide anyone with a dream of their own. Mixing fascinating stories with lots of humor and even some music from host Davis Michaelsen, Grow Getters is truly an original in the world of Ag media.
