Scenario

When couples inherit agricultural responsibilities they're unprepared for

My husband and I inherited his family's farm stand business but we have no idea how to actually grow the quality produce that made it successful, and we're too proud to admit to the longtime customers that we're basically figuring it out as we go. Every week feels like we're performing competence while secretly panicking about crop failures and disappointing people who've been coming here for decades.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The weight of continuing someone else's legacy is creating a performance of knowledge that prevents authentic learning.
