I'm Nik Stephney, a Southern farmer, storyteller, and the steward behind Voyage Farms. In The Weeds is my living journal exploring what it means to grow food and medicine in the South. Each episode is a slow walk through that remembering. You'll find field notes from my backyard farm in South Carolina, reflections on Black agrarian traditions, stories about food as medicine, and lessons I'm learning in real-time. This is a love letter to the South, to small growers, to anyone trying to live and create outside of extractive systems. Welcome to In The Weeds
