Today, we’ve got the pleasure of chatting with the spirited Megan Sharpe, a linchpin in her family’s cherished farm, Homegrown Direct, LLC, which boasts a proud legacy dating back to 1783 in Georgetown, Kentucky. In this episode, Megan opens up about the myriad of hats she wears, from managing marketing and social media to handling the intricate finances of their farm. She’ll share the internal dynamics with her husband Jacob, each carving out specific roles that bolster their operations and trust within.
Megan gives us a candid look into the realities of farm life, discussing everything from handling unpredictable weather and operational snags to creatively marketing imperfect produce. Moreover, she doesn't shy away from personal challenges, including managing a business while being the mother to a special needs daughter, and the quest to maintain her own identity in a traditionally male-dominated industry.

They dive deep into the emotional and practical aspects of running a small business, the support systems that make it possible, and how embracing discomfort can lead to profound personal and business growth.
Stay tuned as Megan imparts wisdom on nurturing entrepreneurial spirit, the importance of community support, and the power of taking leaps into the uncomfortable. Whether you're a budding entrepreneur or looking to glean insights into the small business world, this episode promises a blend of heartfelt advice and practical strategies tailored for you.
