Sown in the Stars: Planting by the Signs by Author Dr. Sarah Hall

In this episode, we are setting the table with planting by the stars and the signs. My guest is Dr. Sarah Hall Associate Professor in Agriculture and Natural Resources and Chair of Division 2 at Berea College, in Berea Kentucky. Dr. Hall is the author of a new book - Sown in the Stars with Photography by Meg Wilson. Dr. Hall’s book came out of a course that she developed called Appalachian Plants and People and she interviewed several people from the state of Kentucky who used the signs, calendars, almanacs, and the stars to plant by.
