Propaganda by the Seed: Breeding Perennial Kale w/ Chris Homanics

In this episode of the Cultivariable podcast, I talk with Chris Homanics, a plant preservationist, breeder, and farmer in the Willamette Valley. Chris is well known for his work with perennial kales and chestnut preservation and breeding.  He also does a lot of work with fruit trees, particularly apples, pears, and persimmons, and is very active in regional efforts to preserve and expand agricultural biodiversity. As is often the case, this interview was done over cell phone and outdoors, so the noise gets a bit thick in places. You can find Chris on Facebook and you can also donate to help with his preservation work.          ​ The post Podcast #8: Chris Homanics appeared first on Cultivariable.
