IF YOU’RE CURIOUS WHAT the forefront of American agriculture will look like in a decade or two, check out whatever Ben Dobson is doing right now. He’s only been foreshadowing farming trends his whole life.

“I was born in the living room of an organic farm,” a homestead where his mother still works the land with a team of horses. At 16 years old, around the turn of the millennium, Dobson started his own first farm, a 40-member vegetable CSA. Later, at 19, Dobson launched an organic coffee business in Haiti, where he met his wife, Nalise. In his twenties, in Maine, Dobson ran the largest organic vegetable farm in the state, alongside a packaged-salad operation that competed directly with California salad giants—a risky proposition, to put it gently, in the earlier years of the local-food movement.

Since you’re reading Organic Hudson Valley, you probably already know why the use of plastic in our beauty products is problematic. Along with being bad for your skin (some experts cite the material is too abrasive), it wreaks havoc on the environment. Bypassing most water treatments, the beads often make their way into waterways undissolved, negatively impacting sea life and even our food!
