Kieran Foran is the co-founder of Fresh Farm Aquaponics in South Glastonbury, Connecticut, whose goal is to teach communities how to feed themselves. Although both Kieran and Spencer had zero experience in farming or business 5 years ago, as fresh college graduates, they were inspired to make some personal life changes that then transformed into a successful aquaponics business. Listen as we discuss the lean startup approach to business, the "customer discovery" process, minimal viable products, and more! We talk about how to get into farmer's markets, what questions to ask your local market if you're getting into business to sell your aquaponics produce, state laws and zoning to research in your area, and designing systems for school curricula! Kieran is a fantastic resource, and this is just part ONE of a four-part series with him! For more info on Fresh Farm Aquaponics, check out http://freshfarmct.org
