Passion Meets Profit on the Farm + Chicken Wings with Laura Robbins

Women In Food

Today I talk with farmer, community leader and entrepreneur, Laura Robbins. We talk about the challenges balancing scaling her farm business, Wild Robbins Farm, with maintaining the level of quality she wants to provide. Laura shares her story moving from a city-dweller in Manhattan, NY through the progression to becoming an organic farmer in Massachusettes and we have a lot of fun realizing how similar our career journeys have been.

In this conversation, we explore the importance of building relationships with your customers and the role of food in fostering community. Laura also shares with us her desire, as a businesswoman to build a business aligned with her values that is also profitable and the sometimes difficult decisions she makes.

Together, talk about the desire to serve community through our farm businesses while keeping our personal passion alive, acknowledging the limitations of being a mostly solo farmer and of course our shared LOVE for good food. Then, dive into all things chicken and especially wings as Laura shares her mouthwatering recipe for crispy chicken wings that you won't want to miss!
