Louisiana Farm Life

Society & Culture


In this episode, Jennifer Finley talks with Maggie Long, a first generation mushroom farmer in St. Francisville, Louisiana. They discuss how she reconnected with her husband-to-be while he was incarcerated, how they built a farm from the ground up, lost it all, and rebuilt with the help of friends, family, and their growing community of customers, fellow farmers, and even prisoners looking for a second chance at life.
