Inside Scoop - Ripple Trail Farm

Talking about the fall harvest

---

For this Inside Scoop, Kim Todd speaks with Karen Durfey, from Ripple Trail Farm live at the St. John's Farmers Market on Freshwater Road in St. John's.

Karen Durfey farms the Ripple Trail Farm in Markland. The farm has been in the family since 1965, and her dad Bernard Tucker, who was the original farmer, at one point had 78 acres. Karen took a different tack, and now farms a dozen (or so) acres of crops and greenhouses, and focuses on the local markets rather than wholesalers.
