Outside Looking In: WWOOF in the US with Julien and Maryam

Hello and welcome back to the Community Agriculture Project, Season 2 Episode 2. Today we welcome our guests Maryam and Julien, who are born originally in France and currently living in Berlin and Paris, respectively. Maryam and Julien spent time in the US this summer working on various farms in New Jersey, Ohio, Pennsylvania and California through WWOOF.

We start off our conversation talking about their backgrounds and their relation to food and agriculture. We talk about why they wanted to come to the US to work on farms here. They give a description of the farms they worked at, the relation of those farms to their communities, and what they take away from their WWOOF and farming experience.
