Elderberry: Forgotten Fruit Makes a Comeback

In our second chat with Kentucky farmer and author John Moody, we talk about elderberry. Moody is the author of The Elderberry Book, in which he explores not only the cultivation and use of elderberry, but also it’s rich history. Moody talks about how, on a small farm such as theirs, 30 bottles of specialty elderberry syrup brings in roughly the same amount as what a conventional farmer might get from an acre of corn.
