Part 1 of 2 – What Keeps You Up at Night – The Life of an Entrepreneur: Episode 10

On this special 2-part episode of What Keeps You Up at Night – The Life of an Entrepreneur, host Shauna Rae sits down with Sophie Foster, owner, of Rising Roots Farm, located in Oxford County.

During this interview, Sophie discusses her passion for agriculture, the preservation of land and the driving force behind starting Rising Roots farm in Oxford County.
