Interview with Modern Cowboy, my Son – The latest offering on Late Bloomer | Urban Organic Garden Show is an interview I recorded with my son in Pescadero, California, two weeks ago. Combined with photos I’ve taken over three trips to TomKat Ranch, my sound editor Christina Horgan, created a slideshow to accompany the podcast, which is also available on SoundCloud.
