Jeff Poppen, also known as the Barefoot Farmer, is the owner and operator of Long Hungry Creek Farm

in Red Boiling Springs. It is one of the oldest and largest organic farms in Tennessee. If you are a

follower of NPT’s Volunteer Gardener program, you will recognize his voice, bare feet and beard! Jeff is a

Agriculture) customers in Nashville for 20+ years. Come join us as Jeff shares his extensive training in

both organic and biodynamic methods of farming in a question and answer session on the grounds of
