BDA Farms, a 6,000 acre operation in Uniontown, Alabama, quit conventional row crop farming to pursue direct to consumer Agriculture. The operation has grown into other categories. The farm produces grass fed beef and lamb, and pasture raised pork and eggs. BDA also grows organic vegetables on ten acres that continues to expand and runs three lodging facilities for Agri-tourism. Mark Harris, a former farmer turned CEO and Allen Williams, a former Mississippi State professor turned farming partner explain their business. And no, BDA isn't just some rich guy's passion project — it's a for profit business. I know because I asked! Sponsored by LandTrust landtrust.com
