This time on Freshly Picked, host Claude Nash takes a closer look at the multigenerational farms and hardworking families that bring fresh, seasonal produce to Mississippi’s holiday tables. Joining the conversation are two incredible guests: Allen Eubanks of Eubanks Produce and Charlie’s U-Pick in Lucedale, and Rick Smith of Clinton’s Fresh Grown Farms.

Meanwhile, Rick reflects on his journey from a diverse career to farming in Clinton, where he connects directly with the community through farmers markets and Fresh Grown Farms’ Farm Share Memberships.
