Don Magnany

Don Magnany, a career vegetable farmer who owns Flowers of the Forest Farm in Great Mills, Maryland, is one of the few farmers I know who enjoys watching sports. Go Nats!

I attended a farm tour with this group of young farmers and not once did I see anyone texting their girl or boyfriend. Let me repeat: 2 hours, over 40 twenty-somethings, and not a single text message! Hope remains for our future. Dan Michaelson helps me at farmers market in Virginia. He's getting his Master's in Biology from the University of Maryland, and intends to start his own farm soon. Dan is super-smart, but he CANNOT tell you the current participants on 'Survivor', or name a single American Idol.
