Jim Artman, Appalachian Grit

Would you all like to meet Jim Artman? After eight years in the Army and having battled a healthy cast of PTSD, Jim has a real story to tell. Jim healed his mind and body with nutritious food, exercise, and gratitude. And his life mission is to help other people gain access to healthy fruits and vegetables through his yard-to-table business Appalachian Grit in Knoxville—especially people who have limited access or residents of long-term health facilities. Jim is my guest on my latest show. ⁣ ⁣ Jim joined the Army to be involved with a mission greater than himself, and now his mission is to help people improve their lives through regenerative agriculture.⁣

And Fred Sauceman shares a segment which is an ode to green beans.
